Can haul up Prez/guv for contempt?'
The New Indian Express
|September 03, 2025
ON the sixth day of hearing in the Presidential Reference case, the Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the parties what the consequences would be if the Governor or the President did not follow the timeline prescribed by it in its April 8 verdict.
"Can the Governor or the President be hauled up for contempt of court if they will not follow the April 8 verdict?" the SC asked. To this, one of the respondents, the Tamil Nadu government, through its lawyer Abhishek Manu Singhvi, replied that "deemed assent" to the bills can be a consequence.
The SC also observed that certain instances of delay in granting assent to Bills cannot justify the laying down of a blanket timeline for the Governors and President to act as per Articles 200 and 201 of the Constitution, respectively.

Weak immunity, low vaccination, pollution behind H3N2 surge
NORTH India witnessed one of the most severe outbreaks of H3N2 influenza in recent years, with hospitals across Delhi-NCR and adjoining states reporting a surge in cases of high fever, cough, and body ache. Doctors say the outbreak has been fuelled by a combination of environmental factors, weakened post-pandemic immunity, and low vaccination coverage — turning what was once a seasonal flu into a prolonged public health concern.
