Protect Constitution and judiciary: Mamata to CJI
Hindustan Times Gurugram
|January 18, 2026
West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday urged Chief Justice of India Surya Kant to “protect” the country’s Constitution, democracy and judiciary from a “disaster’, called for an end to the rising trend of media trials, arguing that public narratives often bypass the legal process before cases are officially disposed of.
“My request to the Chief Justice and all the judges. Please see that our Constitution, democracy, safety and security, history, geography and our boundary are protected from disaster. Media shouldn't engage in a media trial before a case is finalised (court delivers its judgment). This is a trend nowadays to malign the people. There are deliberate attempts by agencies to defame the people,” the CM said, addressing a gathering at the inauguration of the new building of the Calcutta high court’s Jalpaiguri circuit bench.
The Chief Justice of India and the chief justice of Calcutta high court were present at the event.
