A video showing a Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) performing CPR on a conscious 70-year-old passenger aboard the Amrapali Express has ignited controversy online.

Former Chief Justice UU Lalit Highlights Bail Is Norm Caveat

Former Chief Justice of India UU Lalit emphasized the need for a balanced approach to bail decisions during NDTV's Samvidhan@75 conclave, asserting that while bail is a right, certain legal considerations must be addressed. He noted that laws dictate that bail should not be easily granted for serious offenses, such as those carrying a jail term of seven years or more, to ensure societal safety, particularly in cases like rape where the accused might pose a risk to others. Justice Lalit highlighted the importance of allowing judges the discretion to assess the prima facie guilt of an accused, warning against overly restrictive measures that could hinder bail grants. He also criticized the investigative methods used in cases, particularly the lack of available forensic facilities, which impede timely justice. His remarks come amid ongoing discussions surrounding high-profile bail cases, including those involving political figures like former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. sources

Ladki Behen Yojana: Key to BJP-Mahayuti's Major Victory

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Mahayuti alliance achieved a significant victory in the Maharashtra Assembly Elections, securing 235 out of 288 seats, with the BJP alone winning a historic 132 seats. Central to this success was the _Mukhyamantri-Meri Ladki Behan Yojana_, a women-centric initiative providing Rs 1,500 monthly aid, which resonated with female voters, particularly in rural areas. The November 20 elections saw a direct contest between the ruling Mahayuti and the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), which struggled to gain traction. Over 3.06 crore women participated, with their turnout pivotal in constituencies where they outnumbered men. Despite MVA's counter-promises, the credibility of the Mahayuti's schemes prevailed. The _Ladki Behan Yojana_ faced legal challenges but was upheld by the Bombay High Court. Chief Minister Eknath Shinde criticized the opposition for initially opposing the scheme while later adopting similar promises. sources

Three Dead, 30+ Cops Hurt in Sambhal Mosque Violence

Violence erupted in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, during a court-ordered survey of the historic Jama Masjid, resulting in the deaths of three individuals and injuries to over 30 police officers. The unrest began as a crowd of nearly 1,000 locals attempted to block the survey team, leading to clashes where stones were thrown at police, who responded with tear gas and force. The mosque is at the heart of a legal dispute over claims it was built on a Hindu temple's site, a narrative supported by historical texts. Despite the chaos, officials completed the survey, which is due to be submitted by November 29. Political reactions have surfaced, with Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav accusing the ruling BJP of inciting violence to distract from electoral issues. Critics of the survey cite the Places of Worship Act, 1991, which protects the status of religious sites as they existed in 1947. sources

Should Ex-Judges Enter Politics? Insights from Chief Justice Chandrachud

DY Chandrachud, who recently retired as Chief Justice of India, emphasized the importance of maintaining the integrity of the judicial system when discussing whether retired judges should enter politics. Speaking at NDTV's Samvidhan@75 conclave, he stated that society continues to perceive former judges as custodians of the law, and their actions post-retirement should reflect this trust. He noted that while judges are entitled to the same rights as any citizen, they are held to a higher standard, and any political involvement could lead to public skepticism about their judicial impartiality. Chandrachud clarified he was not criticizing former judges who have joined politics but suggested that each judge must consider the implications of their decisions on their legacy. He also advocated for a consensus within the judiciary regarding acceptable conduct for retired judges, highlighting the need for dialogue between current and former judges on this issue. sources
