SC to hear contempt petition against BJP MP Dubey next week

|April 23, 2025
The Supreme Court on Tuesday agreed to hear next week a petition seeking contempt of court action against Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nishikant Dubey for his recent comments against Chief Justice of India (CJI) Sanjiv Khanna and the top court that have ignited a storm of criticism.
NEW DELHI:
A bench headed by Justice Bhushan R Gavai, who is set to become the next CJI on May 14, directed the petition to be listed next week after advocate Narendra Mishra mentioned the case.
On Monday, Mishra had first approached the Gavai-led bench with a request to file a criminal defamation case against Godda MP Dubey. At that time, the top court had asked him to seek the consent of attorney general R Venkatramani.
But on Tuesday, Mishra told the apex court that letters seeking the AG's consent on criminal contempt against Dubey were pending before him but no action was forthcoming even as the statements against the CJI and the top court were getting widely circulated.
