Defamatory & Unacceptable: SCBA on Dubey’s Remark on Judiciary
The judiciary is the backbone of any democracy, ensuring that the rule of law is upheld and justice is served. It is the last resort for the citizens of a country, and its independence is paramount to maintain the faith of the people in the system. Recently, a BJP MP, Nishikant Dubey, made some shocking remarks about the judiciary, which have been widely condemned by the legal fraternity.
The Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) has issued a resolution condemning Dubey’s remarks, terming them as “defamatory” and “unacceptable.” The SCBA has stated that Dubey’s statement is not only defamatory but also amounts to contempt of the Supreme Court. The association has urged the government and the authorities to take stern action against Dubey for his unacceptable remarks.
Dubey’s remark, which has sparked widespread outrage, said that the Supreme Court is the only one responsible for inciting religious wars in India. This statement is not only an affront to the institution of the judiciary but also a blatant attempt to undermine its authority. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land, and its decisions are final and binding. To suggest that it is responsible for inciting religious wars is not only false but also defamatory.
The SCBA has rightly condemned Dubey’s remark, saying that it is unacceptable and amounts to contempt of the Supreme Court. The association has also urged the government to take action against Dubey for his remark, which is in violation of the Constitution and the law of the land. The SCBA has also called upon the government to ensure that the dignity and independence of the judiciary are maintained.
The judiciary is the guardian of the Constitution, and it is the duty of the judges to ensure that the laws of the land are upheld and the Constitution is protected. To suggest that the Supreme Court is responsible for inciting religious wars is not only an attack on the institution but also an attack on the very fabric of our democracy.
The SCBA has also pointed out that Dubey’s remark is not an isolated incident. There have been several instances in the past where the judiciary has been targeted and criticized by politicians and other public figures. This is a worrying trend, as it undermines the authority and independence of the judiciary.
The SCBA has urged the government to take action against Dubey and to ensure that the dignity and independence of the judiciary are maintained. The association has also called upon the government to take steps to ensure that the judiciary is protected from attacks and criticism.
In conclusion, Dubey’s remark is unacceptable and amounts to contempt of the Supreme Court. The SCBA has rightly condemned the remark, and the government must take action against Dubey for his unacceptable behavior. The judiciary is the backbone of our democracy, and it is our duty to protect and uphold its authority and independence.
