The Kerala High Court dismissed a writ petition instituted by Mr. Nedumpara seeking a declaration that the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971—and in particular Sections 2(c)(i), 14, 16, and 17(5) thereof, which provide for contempt of court by scandalization and require a person accused of contempt to incriminate himself by filing an affidavit in proof of his innocence or defense—is unconstitutional, and further seeking a declaration that if the law of contempt is held constitutional, there can be no distinction between a judge of the HC/SC and a judge of a subordinate court, and that both are equally liable for contempt of their own court in the event they commit such contempt.Read the Petition.

Many might wonder why, in one of my earlier articles, in which I referred to rumours circulating in Delhi alleging that the cash discovered following the fire at Justice Yashwant Varma’s residence belonged to former Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, I also wrote about my ancestry—something that might appear entirely out of place in an article […]

Whose money was that which went up in flames at Justice Varma’s residence? Was it his, or Justice Chandrachud’s? That is the gossip in Delhi.
I was the first person to seek the registration of an FIR regarding the crores of rupees that went up in flames at the residence of Justice Verma.Later, I heard from important sources that the money belonged to Justice Chandrachud. Gradually, talk spread among the members of the Bar, and now it has spread like […]

I am a Syrian Christian. We have been Christians for generations—for many, many centuries, even before the Portuguese planted Christianity, Catholicism. Our forefathers came from Syria and married local Hindu women. It is said that many Brahmins accepted the faith under the Patriarch of Antioch, namely, St. Peter. Christians in Kerala generally support the Congress […]
I mentioned the petition seeking reconsideration of the NJAC judgment before the CJI. The audio and video were muted, so the world did not come to know what happened.
I have been seeking a reconsideration of the NJAC judgment from the very day it was pronounced in 2015. I took up the matter with almost all Chief Justices since then, except Justice Gogoi. I didn’t take it up with Justice Gogoi because I hardly had any hope at all, whereas I had some hope […]
Why am I irreverent, nay contemptuous, of the Supreme Court of India?
If something is stated in one or two pages, people can read and understand it. Similarly, if something horrible and atrocious—against common sense and reason—is written in a hundred pages, who has the time to read and understand it? So, all these long judgments are absurd.Sorry to use such a strong term, but the Supreme […]
First-generation lawyers and the underprivileged, wake up! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Assert your rights and unite.
Our justice delivery system serves only a handful of lawyer and judicial families and dynasties. Invoking the basic structure doctrine, they have rewritten the Constitution and created the Collegium, arrogating to themselves the power to appoint judges. Through PILs, they make laws behind the backs of the people affected and run the Government. Using the […]
