eznews.inAs the U.S. presidential election unfolds, approximately 245 million citizens are eligible to vote, with 160 to 165 million expected to participate. The election's outcome will hinge on the 538 Electoral College votes, primarily influenced by seven swing states, including Pennsylvania and Georgia. Analysts suggest that Donald Trump, despite facing numerous challenges, has maintained strong support, especially among younger voters and minority groups, with many appreciating his outsider status. Conversely, Kamala Harris's campaign focuses on unifying voters, particularly women, and addressing reproductive rights, although she struggles with name recognition and Biden's unpopularity. Polls indicate a tight race, with Harris recently gaining traction in Iowa, a traditionally Republican state. The election remains unpredictable, with the possibility of a crucial electoral vote from Nebraska determining the winner. Pollsters are now reconsidering their forecasts as the race approaches its conclusion.

Published: Nov 05 2024, 11 ameznews.inIn a significant ruling, the Supreme Court of India determined that not all privately owned properties can be deemed community resources eligible for government takeover, with an 8-1 majority from a nine-judge Constitution bench led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud. The case centered on Article 31C of the Constitution, which protects state laws aimed at fulfilling directive principles, notably Article 39B, which addresses the distribution of community resources. Chief Justice Chandrachud emphasized that while privately owned resources could theoretically qualify, they do not automatically fall under community resources. He outlined that the assessment must consider various factors, including the resource's nature and its community impact. Justice BV Nagarathna, in her separate judgment, disagreed with Chandrachud's critique of past judicial interpretations, advocating for a more contextual understanding of historical rulings amid changing socio-economic policies. Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia dissented.

Published: Nov 05 2024, 11 ameznews.inThe Indian government has issued a notice to Wikipedia amid complaints of bias and inaccuracies in its volunteer-edited entries, as reported by NDTV.

Published: Nov 05 2024, 9 ameznews.inChief Justice D Y Chandrachud emphasized that judicial independence does not equate to consistently ruling against the government. Speaking at an event organized by the Indian Express group in New Delhi, he noted that while traditional definitions of judicial independence focus on autonomy from the executive, the landscape has evolved with the rise of social media and pressure groups seeking favorable outcomes through public influence. He criticized the notion that judges are deemed independent only when their decisions align with certain interests, stating, "If you do not decide in my favour, you are not independent." Mr. Chandrachud, who will step down on November 10, highlighted that true independence allows judges to make decisions based on their conscience, guided by law and the Constitution, regardless of whether those decisions favor the government or not, citing his own ruling against electoral bonds as an example of genuine independence.
Published: Nov 05 2024, 9 ameznews.inThe Supreme Court of India is set to decide today on the future of the Uttar Pradesh madrassa law, which was previously declared unconstitutional by the Allahabad High Court on March 22. The High Court's ruling aimed to mainstream madrassa education by integrating students into the formal schooling system. This decision has been challenged in the Supreme Court, where justices have indicated that while religious education is not inherently problematic, it should be complemented with essential subjects. Chief Justice DY Chandrachud emphasized the importance of regulating madrassas to preserve India's diverse cultural heritage, arguing against creating educational silos for minorities. Opponents of the law, including the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights, argue that madrassa education undermines the constitutional promise of quality education. The Uttar Pradesh government supports the law, asserting that the High Court's ruling was overly broad. The Supreme Court had previously stayed the High Court's order, allowing madrassas to continue operating.
