छत्तीसगढ़ में हुए विधानसभा चुनाव को लेकर कुछ एग्जिट पोल में सत्ताधारी दल कांग्रेस को भारतीय जनता पार्टी (BJP) पर मामूली बढ़त मिलने के पूर्वानुमान के बाद मुख्यमंत्री भूपेश बघेल ने कहा कि उनकी पार्टी राज्य में पूर्ण बहुमत के साथ सरकार बनाएगी. रायपुर विमानतल पर संवाददाताओं से बघेल ने कहा कि भाजपा राज्य में विधायकों की खरीद-फरोख्त नहीं कर पाएगी. एग्जिट पोल के बारे में पूछे जाने पर, बघेल ने कहा, ‘‘क्या एग्जिट पोल (विभिन्न एजेंसियों और चैनलों के) के बीच समानता है? दो दिन बाद (तीन दिसंबर को जब वोटों की गिनती होगी) सभी का एक ही पोल रिजल्ट सामने आएगा. एग्जिट पोल आने दीजिए, लेकिन हम पूर्ण बहुमत के साथ सरकार बनाएंगे. एक चैनल के एग्जिट पोल में कांग्रेस को 90 सदस्यीय विधानसभा में से 57 सीट मिलने का पूर्वानुमान जताया गया, इस पर उन्होंने कहा, ‘‘पार्टी उससे भी अधिक सीट हासिल करेगी. 57 नहीं 75 सीट हासिल करेगी. क्रम बदल दिया जाएगा.'' यदि भाजपा ऑपरेशन लोटस (खरीद-फरोख्त) चलाती है तो अपने विधायकों को अन्य स्थानों पर स्थानांतरित करने की कांग्रेस की संभावित योजना के सवाल पर उन्होंने कहा, ‘‘इसकी (व...

The number of "fraud cases" in the Supreme Court tends to increase as elections draw closer and the court becomes a site for political engagement, Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud said on Thursday. Speaking at the Constitution Day function organised by the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) in the Supreme Court, Chief Justice Chandrachud said we all exist together and the Indian Constitution tells us that "we either survive or we perish together". "But above all, I think it is important that on a day where we celebrate the Constitution, we learn to discharge our duties to the cause of justice. Our duty to the cause of justice ranks much higher than the success or failure in individual cases," he said. "Just yesterday, I had to deal with a fraud case. The Supreme Court deals with fraud cases every day. Some courts have more than their share of fraud cases and there are some times as elections come, the number of fraud cases tends to increase...

Software industry icon NR Narayana Murthy on Wednesday said "nothing should be given free," and suggested people availing services and subsidies provided by the Government should be made to contribute back for the betterment of the society. The Infosys co-founder also said compassionate capitalism is the only solution for a poor country like India to become a prosperous nation. "When you provide those services, when you provide those subsidies, there must be something in return that they're willing to do. For example, if you say -- I will give you free electricity, then it would have been a very nice thing for the government to have said, but we want to see the percentage attendance in primary schools and middle schools go up by 20 per cent, then only we will give you that," Narayana Murthy said. Speaking at the 26th edition of Bengaluru Tech Summit 2023, here, the IT industry veteran said that in other words, nothing should be given for free, and that there s...

A special court in Mumbai on Wednesday rejected absconding diamond merchant Mehul Choksi's application seeking to intervene in an application filed by the ICICI Bank for the release of certain mortgaged properties worth Rs 636 crore. Mehul Choksi, an accused in the Rs 13,500 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam, is currently living in Antigua in Barbados. The ICICI Bank has sought release of certain properties mortgaged with it. His intervention application took objection to the release of his flats in south Mumbai and a bungalow in Alibaug, attached by the Enforcement Directorate during its probe, in the bank's favour. But special judge for the Prevention of Money Laundering Act cases SM Menjoge said the bank had not sought these properties. The properties which the ICICI Bank was seeking were not owned by Choksi personally but by different companies, hence, he had no right to intervene, the court said. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorat...

A division bench of Chief Justice Sunita Agarwal and Justice Aniruddha P Mayee also asked, during the hearing, if it was the petitioner's case that the noise of bells and gongs during 'aarti' at a temple is not heard outside. The petition, filed by Bajrang Dal leader Shaktisinh Zala, claimed that "noise pollution" caused by 'azaan' when played through loudspeakers affects people's, especially children's health and causes inconvenience otherwise. However, the High Court noted that the claims in the petition had no scientific foundation. Azaan is conducted for a maximum of ten minutes at a time at different hours of the day, the court pointed out. "We fail to understand how the human voice making azan through loudspeak...
