Justice Gavai emphasizes Ambedkar's vision of a supreme and flexible Constitution with an independent judiciary during a felicitation in Maharashtra.

Justice Gavai on Judiciary Vision of Ambedkar

CJI Bhushan R. Gavai underscores Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's emphasis on Constitutional supremacy and judicial independence at a Maharashtra event.

Justice Gavai reaffirms Ambedkar's vision of a supreme Constitution and independent judiciary, crucial for rights protection.

Dr B R Ambedkar spoke about the supremacy of the Constitution and believed that judiciary should be free from interference from the executive, Chief Justice of India Bhushan Ramkrishna Gavai said here on Tuesday.
He was speaking after being felicitated by the Maharashtra legislature upon his elevation to the top judicial post.
Ambedkar had said that we all believe in the supremacy of the Constitution which will keep the country united during peace and war, Gavai said in his address to the legislature.
The Constitution gives rights to the three wings -- Executive, Legislature and Judiciary -- and according to Ambedkar, judiciary has to work as a watchdog and custodian of citizens' rights, the chief justice said.
Ambedkar also said that judiciary should be free from executive interference, he added.
The CJI also quoted Ambedkar as stating that the Constitution cannot be static, it has to be organic and keep evolving.
Earlier, both houses of the Maharashtra legislature congratulated Gavai on his elevation to the top post.
He was also felicitated by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on behalf of the legislature.

Kejriwal urges NDA allies to rethink BJP support over Ambedkar remark

Arvind Kejriwal said people feel that those who love Ambedkar can not support the BJP that "insulted" the architect of India's Constitution.

AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday wrote letters to Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu, leaders of NDA partners JDU and TDP, urging them to deeply reflect on Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remark on B R Ambedkar.
Sharing the letters in X, Kejriwal said people feel that those who love Ambedkar can not support the BJP that "insulted" the architect of India's Constitution, and asked Kumar and Naidu to ponder over it.
Shah's remark on Babasaheb was not only "disrespectful" but also revealed the BJP's perspective towards him and the Constitution, the AAP leader said in the letters to the two chief ministers.

"The statement made by Shah in Parliament regarding Babasaheb has left the entire nation stunned. His remark that 'chanting Ambedkar-Ambedkar has become a fashion these days' is not only disrespectful but also reveals the BJP's perspective towards Babasaheb and our Constitution," Kejriwal wrote.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's JDU and his Andhra Pradesh counterpart Naidu's TDP are constituents of the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) at the Centre led by the BJP.

"How can the BJP dare to make such a comment against Babasaheb, the Constitution's architect and champion of marginalised rights? This has hurt the sentiments of millions of people across the country," Kejriwal said.
"Babasaheb is not just a leader but the soul of our nation. After this statement by BJP, people expect you to deeply reflect on this issue as well," the former Delhi chief minister implored Kumar and Naidu.

Both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha have been adjourned following noisy protests by the Opposition seeking an apology from Home Minister Amit Shah for his remarks on B R Ambedkar.

BJP accuses Rahul Gandhi of pushing its MP

Nishikant Dubey of the BJP alleged that Rahul Gandhi pushed an aged parliamentarian leading to his fall and subsequent injury.

Competing marches by opposition and NDA MPs led to shoving and jostling inside Parliament House premises on Thursday with BJP's Pratap Sarangi getting injured in the melee amid allegations that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi pushed him.

Sarangi was taken to hospital with an injury on his forehead. Both the marches were taken out over the Ambedkar issue, with the opposition accusing Home Minister Amit Shah of insulting the chief architect of the Constitution.
The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha later told reporters that while he was trying to enter the Parliament House, BJP members pushed and "threatened" him.
"It is our right to enter Parliament," he said.
Asked if Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi had also been pushed, Rahul Gandhi said, "It has happened but we don't get bothered with this pushing around."
"This is the entry to Parliament, we have a right to go inside and the BJP members were stopping us from going inside," he alleged and pointed to the Makar Dwar.
Nishikant Dubey of the BJP alleged that Rahul Gandhi pushed an aged parliamentarian leading to his fall and subsequent injury.
Union Minister Shivraj Chouhan told TV reporters that Sarangi received a few stitches to stop the bleeding.

Dressed in blue, a colour associated with B R Ambedkar, INDIA bloc MPs, including the Congress' Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi, staged a protest in the Parliament premises demanding Amit Shah's resignation for his remarks related to the chief architect of the Constitution.
BJP-led NDA parliamentarians also carried out a march within Parliament premises, raising slogans and carrying placards demanding an apology from the opposition Congress for allegedly insulting Ambedkar.
As the INDIA bloc parliamentarians came face to face with the ruling coalition MPs in front of the Makar Dar of Parliament, the two sides engaged in loud sloganeering in a bid to outdo each other.
The INDIA bloc members first staged a protest at B R Ambedkar's statue in Parliament premises, carrying posters that read 'Main Bhi Ambedkar', 'Jai Bhim' and 'Amit Shah maafi maango'.
They then took out a protest march on the Parliament premises. MPs of the Congress, DMK, RJD, SP, the Left and NCP(SP), among others, participated in the protest. Several opposition MPs, including Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and K Kanimozhi, were seen wearing blue.
Earlier, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha chaired a meeting of the Congress' Lok Sabha MPs in the main committee room.
The opposition on Wednesday seized on Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks on B R Ambedkar to corner the government and demanded his resignation for what they called was an insult to the architect of the Constitution.
The attack from virtually all opposition parties, including the Congress, TMC, DMK, RJD, Left parties and Shiv Sena-UBT, led to the adjournment of both Houses of Parliament and prompted the BJP, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to come out in stout defence of Shah.
Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Derek O'Brien has also submitted a notice to move a privilege motion against Shah in the Rajya Sabha where the home minister had said on Tuesday evening that Congress leaders would have got a place in heaven had they chanted the name of God rather than following the fashion of repeating Ambedkar's name.
The hullabaloo in Parliament also spilled onto the streets of the national capital and places as far as Maharashtra, Bihar and Tamil Nadu. In Delhi, AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal led hundreds of supporters to gather outside the BJP office and protest noisily amid slogans "Amit Shah maafi mango, Amit Shah sharm karo".
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and senior leader Rahul Gandhi, TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee, DMK chief M K Stalin, Shiv Sena-UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav were among those who have slammed Shah for his remarks.

Amit Shah: Congress Twisted My Statement on Ambedkar

Shah alleged that the Congress in the past has also misrepresented his and even PM Narendra Modi's comments to spread confusion and mislead people.

Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday accused the Congress of twisting facts and distorting his comments in the Rajya Sabha related to B R Ambedkar after BJP leaders "exposed" the opposition party's repeated "insults" to the architect of the Constitution.
Addressing a press conference here, Shah alleged that the Congress in the past has also misrepresented his and even PM Narendra Modi's comments to spread confusion and mislead people.
"I condemn the Congress for twisting facts. Why did it happen? It happened because BJP leaders spoke on how the NDA governments upheld the Constitution and established with facts that the Congress is anti-Ambedkar, anti-Constitution and anti-reservation," Shah told reporters here.
The senior BJP leader said the Congress also insulted V D Savarkar and blew to smithereens the values enshrined in the Constitution by imposing Emergency.
"When all these facts came out, the Congress used its old tricks and made an effort to mislead the society by presenting twisted facts," Shah said.
Shah said he comes from a party that can never insult Ambedkar.
Asked about Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge's demand for his resignation, the home minister said in a lighter vein that he can quit if this will make the Congress president happy but it will never solve his problems. He has to remain in his chair, a reference to his party being in the opposition, for 15 more years, Shah said.
Kharge, he added, has acted under Rahul Gandhi's pressure to be part of this "malicious" campaign against him by distorting his views on Ambedkar.

The Allahabad High Court has called upon the Central government to initiate the process for of the Uniform Civil Code. The court stated that the Uniform Civil Code &ldquo;is a necessity and mandatorily required today&rdquo;.
Justice Suneet Kumar on November 18 said that the UCC &ldquo;cannot be made &lsquo;purely voluntary&rsquo; as was observed by Dr. B.R Ambedkar 75 years back.
The court directed the Centre to consider the constitution of a committee or commission for implementing the mandate of Article 44, as directed by the Supreme Court.
The court further added that a common civil code "will help the cause of national integration by removing disparate loyalties to laws which have conflicting ideologies".

Justice Kumar made the observations while hearing a bunch of 17 petitions filed by inter-faith couples. The petitioners apprehended threat to their life and liberty at the hands of their parents, relatives and other family members in connivance of the State machinery.

Hathras case: Sena attacks Yogi, Kangana with a Pakistan poser

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut Sunday likened the Hathras incident in Uttar Pradesh, wherein a 19-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped and killed, to &ldquo;atrocities being committed against Hindu girls in Pakistan&rdquo;.

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut Sunday likened the Hathras incident in Uttar Pradesh&nbsp;to 'atrocities being committed against Hindu girls in Pakistan'. Wondering why nobody has called Hathras&nbsp;a Pakistan yet, Raut&nbsp;in a write-up in the party mouthpiece &lsquo;Saamana&rsquo;, also took a veiled jibe at actress Kangana Ranaut&nbsp;for comparing Mumbai&nbsp;with Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. He wrote what happened in Hathras was no different that how Hindu girls are treated in PoK.&nbsp;Raut said that identity of a rape victim should never be revealed, but a photograph of the Hathras victim in a hospital was circulated.

PTI,&nbsp;Mumbai:&nbsp;Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut Sunday likened the Hathras incident in Uttar Pradesh, wherein a 19-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped and killed, to &ldquo;atrocities being committed against Hindu girls in Pakistan&rdquo;.
In a write-up in the party mouthpiece &lsquo;Saamana&rsquo;, Raut also took a veiled jibe at actress Kangana Ranaut over her &ldquo;Mumbai-Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK)&rdquo; remark wondering why nobody has called Hathras a Pakistan yet.
&ldquo;The Hathras victim was not a celebrity and she was not on drugs. She did not have any illegal construction (built by) spending crores of rupees. She was a simple girl whose dead body was illegally burnt in the dead of the night. All this happened in Yogi's (Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath&rsquo;s) &lsquo;Ramrajya&rsquo; (concept of ideal rule).
&ldquo;We hear that such incidents happen in Pakistan where Hindu girls are kidnapped, raped and murdered. What happened in Hathras was no different. So far no one has called Hathras a Pakistan," he said in his weekly column &lsquo;Rokhthok&rsquo;.
Raut said that identity of a rape victim should never be revealed, but a photograph of the Hathras victim in a hospital was circulated. &ldquo;Those who supported Kangana Ranaut's baseless comments against Mumbai and Maharashtra and demanded justice for her when her illegal construction was pulled down (by the Mumbai civic body last month), are now silent and have become invisible when it comes to demanding justice for the Hathras victim,&rdquo; he wrote.
He questioned the &ldquo;silence&rdquo; of National Commission for Women&rsquo;s chairperson Rekha Sharma, who had filed a case against Sena MLA Pratap Sarnaik for his remarks against Ranaut, in the Hathras case.
&ldquo;Has justice eluded the Hathras victim because she was a Dalit?" Raut asked. He also criticised Union minister and Dalit leader Ramdas Athawale for &ldquo;keeping mum&rdquo; on the case.
"The Dalit movement and Ambedkar thoughts have been destroyed," he said.
Raut said 12,257 incidents of gang-rape have taken reported in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Haryana and Madhya Pradesh from 2014 to 2019, &ldquo;but justice is given considering caste, religion and political affiliations&rdquo;.
&ldquo;If a Hathras-like incident had taken place in Maharashtra, demands would have been raised for dismissal of the state government and for imposition of President's rule,&rdquo; he added.&nbsp;
