Indian Supreme Court's initiative should inspire Bangladeshi legal community
India's top court Friday ordered the release of six people convicted over the assassination of former PM Rajiv Gandhi.
India’s Supreme Court today (August 23, 2022) agreed to hear a public interest litigation (PIL) – challenging the remission granted to 11 convicts in a case relating to the gang-rape of Bilkis Bano and murder of 13 people, including her three-year-old child, during the riots in Gujarat state over two decades ago.
The Assam Public Works (APW), an NGO and the original petitioner in the Supreme Court which led to the update of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in the state, says the final NRC is a “flawed document”.
India’s Supreme Court orders that the list of those people who are excluded from the final National Register of Citizens in Assam be published only online on August 31.
The Assam government releases district-wise break down of figures and claims large-scale fudging of “legacy documents” by people in the districts bordering Bangladesh to get their names included in the document.
In a major relief to the 4.7 million people left out of the final draft of National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam, the Indian Supreme Court extends the deadline for filing claims and objections of people excluded from the document till December 15.
After decriminalizing consensual gay sex between two adults, the Indian Supreme Court rules that adultery is not a crime, scrapping an "archaic" law saying the "husband is not the master of the wife."
