Defamatory & Unacceptable: SCBA on Dubey’s Remark on Judiciary
The Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) has issued a strong condemnation statement against the recent remarks made by BJP MP Nishikant Dubey against the judiciary. In a shocking outburst, Dubey had claimed that the Supreme Court is responsible for inciting religious wars in India. The SCBA has termed his statement as “defamatory” and “unacceptable”, emphasizing that it amounts to contempt of the Supreme Court.
Dubey’s remarks have sparked widespread outrage and condemnation from various quarters, with many calling for his apology and action against him. The SCBA’s resolution is a significant development in this regard, as it represents the collective voice of the legal fraternity and is a strong rebuke to Dubey’s unacceptable comments.
In its statement, the SCBA emphasized that the judiciary is an institution that is meant to uphold the Constitution and ensure the rule of law in the country. It is the Supreme Court’s duty to protect the rights of citizens, ensure justice, and maintain the integrity of the legal system. Any attack on the judiciary, therefore, is an attack on the very fabric of our democracy.
The SCBA also pointed out that Dubey’s remarks are not only defamatory but also amount to contempt of the Supreme Court. Contempt of court is a serious offense in law, and anyone found guilty of it can face severe penalties, including imprisonment. The SCBA’s resolution is a clear warning to Dubey and others who may be tempted to make similar comments in the future.
It is worth noting that Dubey’s remarks are not an isolated incident. There have been several instances in recent times where politicians and public figures have made similar attacks on the judiciary. This trend needs to be stopped, and it is essential that we have a robust mechanism in place to ensure that the judiciary is protected from such attacks.
The SCBA’s resolution is a step in the right direction, and we hope that it will serve as a deterrent to others who may be tempted to make similar comments. It is also important that the government takes concrete steps to prevent such incidents in the future. This can be achieved by ensuring that the judiciary is adequately protected and by taking action against those who make unacceptable comments about the judiciary.
In conclusion, the SCBA’s resolution against Dubey’s remarks is a welcome development. It is a strong rebuke to his unacceptable comments and a reminder that the judiciary is an institution that is meant to be respected and protected. We hope that this resolution will serve as a deterrent to others who may be tempted to make similar comments and that the government will take concrete steps to prevent such incidents in the future.
