The Allahabad High Court has strongly condemned the actions of revenue authorities in Raebareli for demolishing the house of a man who held a valid 'patta' (land lease) for the property. In a scathing order, Justice Alok Mathur criticized the "undue haste" and failure to consider the petitioner's legal claim, underscoring that the right to property is a constitutional right under Article 300-A.

The judgment firmly reiterated the sanctity of the right to property, protected under Article 300-A of the Constitution, which states that no person can be deprived of their property except in accordance with the law.

In a significant judgment that reinforces the bulwarks of press freedom, the Gauhati High Court has quashed a First Information Report (FIR) filed against a journalist, holding that reporting on contentious social and political issues does not automatically constitute an offense of promoting enmity between groups under Section 153A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

The matter originates from an FIR lodged on November 11, 2016, against Kongkon Borthakur, a journalist with the Assamese daily Dainik Janmabhumi . The complaint was filed by Farid Islam Hazarika, President of the All Assam Muslim Students’ Union (AAMSU), Sivasagar district.

The court explicitly declared that “raising concerns about illegal migrants, religious fundamentalism, militant activities and demographic threats to the indigenous people cannot, by itself, be construed as an attempt to create enmity between groups or to incite violence.”

The Supreme Court of India has strongly rebuked a woman for demanding what it considered extravagant alimony, advising that educated spouses should strive for financial independence rather than depending on maintenance from their former partners.

It was against this backdrop that the woman, appearing in person, presented her demands to the Supreme Court bench: a house in Mumbai, ₹12 crore in maintenance, and a BMW car.

"Your marriage lasted only 18 months, and now you want a BMW too? One crore every month?" the CJI remarked, framing the ₹12 crore demand as equivalent to an exorbitant monthly sum for the brief period the couple was together.
