Indian-Americans in California alarmed as Senate advances transnational repression bill
The Indian diaspora, including Hindus, have expressed serious concern over the "rapid advancement" of California Senate Bill, SB 509. The bill, which claims to address "transnational repression", is seen by some sections of the Indian community as a "potential threat to the civil liberties and safety of minority communities".The bill, which was passed by the Senate and is being rushed through the Assembly, according to two advocacy groups, The Coalition of Hindus of North America (CoHNA) and the Hindu American Foundation (HAF).advertisementSB 509 aims to counter foreign governments or agents who threaten, surveil, or silence people living in California. While this goal seems noble, critics say its language is overly broad and could unintentionally target members of immigrant communities. The bill has been referred to the Assembly's Emergency Management Committee as of June 9, 2025. If it clears the Assembly, it will move to Governor Gavin Newsom's desk for final WAS THE BILL INTRODUCED?SB 509 was authored by Senator Anna Caballero and co-authored by Assembly members Esmeralda Soria and Jasmeet Bains.

All have been rejected. Now, the bill is being rushed through the Assembly after it passed the Senate vote without any effort to address community concerns," the statement CoHNA and HAF felt their concerns had been ignored by the bill's authors — Senators Anna Caballero and Assembly members Jasmeet Bains and Esmeralda Soria, CoHNA the lawmakers have doubled down on legislation that could unjustly label peaceful advocacy efforts as foreign interference, placing innocent Hindu Californians at risk of undue scrutiny and profiling, the statement Kalra, managing director of the Hindu American Foundation and a Civil Rights Attorney, reiterated, "SB 509 lacks the adequate guardrails necessary to prevent training on transnational repression from being politicised.""More dangerously, under the guise of protecting 'dissent', SB 509 would empower law enforcement to criminally prosecute diaspora groups and community organisations who merely speak out against terrorism and extremism, by accusing them of being foreign 'agents' or engaging in 'transnational repression' on behalf of a foreign country," Kalra added.

Supreme Court refuses to reduce sentence of advocate who abused woman magistrate in 2015
The Supreme Court Tuesday decided not to interfere with a Delhi High Court order which refused to reduce the sentence awarded to an advocate for outraging the modesty of a woman judicial officer in 2015, and granted him two weeks to surrender. A bench of Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Manmohan recorded that it is 'not inclined to interfere with the orders' passed by the Delhi High Court against advocate Sanjay Rathore and dismissed his plea. In October 2015, the complainant judicial officer was serving as a metropolitan magistrate in the Karkardooma court when Rathore, enraged by an adjournment in his matter in his absence, verbally abused the officer, including using gendered abusive language. An FIR was subsequently lodged at the Farsh Bazar police station. Rathore was sentenced to 18 months of imprisonment under Indian Penal Code Section 509 (intending to outrage modesty of a woman), three months under Section 189 (injury to public servant), and an additional three months under Section 353 (assault or criminal force against public servant to deter them from their duty). It was directed that the sentences should run consecutively, thereby resulting in a total sentence of two years. The Delhi High Court, while refusing to reduce the sentence, however, modified it so that the sentences could run concurrently instead of consecutively. As a result, Rathore was sentenced to a total of one year and six months in prison. The high court, in its order of May 26, emphasised that acts threatening or intimidating a judge, especially through 'gender-specific abuse, is an assault on justice itself, and must be met with firm accountability'. While refusing Rathore any relief, it further recorded in its order, 'The act of outraging the modesty of a judicial officer while she was presiding over court proceedings, seated on the dais and discharging her solemn duty of dispensing justice, in this court's opinion, attacks the very foundation of judicial decorum and the institutional integrity.'
