Representational image NEW DELHI: SC on Tuesday criticised 12 ’eminent’ persons who together filed a PIL “targeting” CMs of BJP-governed states for alleged hate speeches while making a plea for framing guidelines to restrain constitutional functionaries and bureaucrats from breaching fidelity to constitutional morality. Appearing for petitioners, senior advocate Kapil Sibal told a bench of Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justices BV Nagarathna and Joymalya Bagchi that the country’s atmosphere had become toxic and “it is only the SC which can and should remedy it.”However, the CJI-led bench was quick to point out that the petition had selectively named individuals while highlighting the problem. “This petition is definitely targeting certain individuals as it leaves out others who routinely make such hate speeches. Let the petitioners not create an impression that it is targeting certain individuals.”The petitioners, including Roop Rekha Verma, Mohd Adeep, Harsh Mander, Najeeb Jung, John Dayal and Ashok Kumar Sharma had cited the alleged hate speeches of Himanta Biswa Sarma, Yogi Adityanath, Devendra Fadnavis, Pushkar Singh Dhami, Anantkumar Hegde and Giriraj Singh, all of whom belong to BJP, in addition to certain remarks by some bureaucrats.”Come with an impartial and neutral petition. The issue is important. Ultimately, there must be restraint in speech from all sides. We would like to say all political party functionaries must be mindful of constitutional morality and exercise restraint in their speeches, and any guideline should be applicable across the board,” said the CJI.The bench said there are political parties which brazenly make speeches based on their communal ideology and openly profess hatred. “You have not cited a single example from the other side.”When Sibal said he would delete all references to individuals in the petition, the bench responded that it would hear the PIL after the necessary amendments are carried out.Justice Nagarathna said, “Political party leaders must foster fraternity. Courts can pass orders. But the remedy lies in political parties and democratic institutions living up to constitutional values and morality.” Justice Nagarathna added, “The origin of speech is the thought process. Can by court order the thought process of a person be altered or restricted? What about free speech?”Justice Bagchi told Sibal, “It is such a vague petition. Instead of it being a populist exercise, let it be a constructive constitutional exercise. Humdrum of politics should not dictate the filing of the PIL.”Sibal sought two weeks to amend the PIL.The two prayers of the petitioners read like fundamental duties of a citizen: a) declaration that public speeches of constitutional functionaries or holders of public office are subject to constitutional morality and should not violate fundamental rights of others; b) formulation of guidelines to govern public speech by constitutional functionaries and bureaucrats to ensure fidelity to constitutional morality, without imposing prior restraint or censorship.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosFormer Assam Congress Chief Bhupen Borah to Join BJP, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma ConfirmsPM Modi Invites Bangladesh PM Tarique Rahman to India, Om Birla Hands Over Letter in DhakaIndian Man Accused Of Sexually Assaulting Minor Detained In New JerseyMumbai Hosts Modi-Macron Talks, Rafale In Focus; Bill Gates To Attend AI Summit Under Epstein CloudFrom 1910 To Today: PM Modi Revives Veer Savarkar Saga During Talks With France President MacronWatch Macron’s Diary Unfold: Jog, 26/11 Homage And High-Stakes Meet With PM ModiPM Modi, Emmanuel Macron Vow Strong India-France Anti Terror Front, Signals Big G7-BRICS BridgePM Modi, Emmanuel Macron Elevate India France Ties, Inaugurate H125 Line And Expand Strategic AgendaIndia, France Launch H125 Helicopter Line In Karnataka, Rajnath Singh Sees Export And Jobs Surge‘Targeting People Like Terrorists’: Mamata Banerjee Attacks EC Over SIR, Cites Bangladesh Polls123PhotostoriesThe 50 Recap: Nikki Tamboli says she hurt her family after a fight with boyfriend Arbaz Patel; Urvashi Dholakia and Arushi Chawla returnRamadan 2026: How to make Mushroom and Soya Kebab for Iftar5 Vastu-approved flowering plants you must grow to attract luck and prosperity8 smart ways to include beetroot in kids’ breakfastHow to make Dahi wale Aloo for dinner at homeIndia’s top 5 states leading residential real estate market in 20267 car maintenance tips every owner should know5 windiest cities in the world and why tourists love visiting themYour gym routine is fixing more than your weight, it’s fixing your body7 fascinating birds that can swim underwater like fish123Hot PicksEmmanuel Macron India VisitGold rate todaySaudi Labour Law ViolationVB-G RAM G schemeIncome Tax CalculatorPublic holidays February 2026Bank Holidays februaryTop TrendingMegan Thee StallionKayla NicoleLarry WheelsElana Meyers Taylor HusbandDarron LeeKayla NicoleCardi BPuka Nacua And Charlotte Flair Dating RumorsTyson FuryJake Paul Fiance

Tina Ambani (File photo) NEW DELHI: Tina Ambani, the wife of Anil Ambani of Reliance group, skipped her second date with the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday. She did not appear at the agency’s headquarters here on a summons issued in connection with a money laundering probe. Tina was earlier summoned on Feb 9. Her husband has been summoned for questioning on Wednesday in connection with an investigation into his group entities, including Reliance Communication and Reliance Power Ltd. Anil is facing a probe in a Rs 40,000 crore laundering case. Fast-tracking its investigation, ED has sent letters rogatory (LRs) to the US, the UK, the UAE, Singapore and some tax havens seeking further details on the alleged money trail. The LRs, formal requests served through courts to foreign jurisdictions to produce/validate evidence, have been sent to trace the “proceeds of the crime,” allegedly generated from bank loans received by group entities. Anil was questioned once earlier, in Aug last year, when he was asked to disclose details about his foreign assets and other transactions. Over the past year, ED has conducted 46 searches, including at premises linked to Anil in Mumbai, and attach-ed assets worth over Rs 12,000 crore. The agency has also constituted an SIT on the directions of Supreme Court to expedite its probe.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosFormer Assam Congress Chief Bhupen Borah to Join BJP, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma ConfirmsPM Modi Invites Bangladesh PM Tarique Rahman to India, Om Birla Hands Over Letter in DhakaIndian Man Accused Of Sexually Assaulting Minor Detained In New JerseyMumbai Hosts Modi-Macron Talks, Rafale In Focus; Bill Gates To Attend AI Summit Under Epstein CloudFrom 1910 To Today: PM Modi Revives Veer Savarkar Saga During Talks With France President MacronWatch Macron’s Diary Unfold: Jog, 26/11 Homage And High-Stakes Meet With PM ModiPM Modi, Emmanuel Macron Vow Strong India-France Anti Terror Front, Signals Big G7-BRICS BridgePM Modi, Emmanuel Macron Elevate India France Ties, Inaugurate H125 Line And Expand Strategic AgendaIndia, France Launch H125 Helicopter Line In Karnataka, Rajnath Singh Sees Export And Jobs Surge‘Targeting People Like Terrorists’: Mamata Banerjee Attacks EC Over SIR, Cites Bangladesh Polls123PhotostoriesThe 50 Recap: Nikki Tamboli says she hurt her family after a fight with boyfriend Arbaz Patel; Urvashi Dholakia and Arushi Chawla returnRamadan 2026: How to make Mushroom and Soya Kebab for Iftar5 Vastu-approved flowering plants you must grow to attract luck and prosperity8 smart ways to include beetroot in kids’ breakfastHow to make Dahi wale Aloo for dinner at homeIndia’s top 5 states leading residential real estate market in 20267 car maintenance tips every owner should know5 windiest cities in the world and why tourists love visiting themYour gym routine is fixing more than your weight, it’s fixing your body7 fascinating birds that can swim underwater like fish123Hot PicksEmmanuel Macron India VisitGold rate todaySaudi Labour Law ViolationVB-G RAM G schemeIncome Tax CalculatorPublic holidays February 2026Bank Holidays februaryTop TrendingMegan Thee StallionKayla NicoleLarry WheelsElana Meyers Taylor HusbandDarron LeeKayla NicoleCardi BPuka Nacua And Charlotte Flair Dating RumorsTyson FuryJake Paul Fiance
