FIle photo NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Thursday reserved verdict on the anticipatory bail of Congress neta Pawan Khera in a criminal case against him by Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma’s wife for alleging she possessed multiple passports and undisclosed offshore properties.A bench of justices J K Maheshwari and A S Chandurkar concluded the hearing on plea of Khera who challenged a Gauhati HC verdict dismissing his pre-arrest bail petition.Pressing for bail, senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi told the bench the CM had been making several objectionable remarks against the Congress functionary, which showed that he will be arrested even though custodial interrogation is not needed in the case.Solicitor general Tushar Mehta, appearing for Assam government, opposed the plea and said Khera showed fake and doctored copies of passports of the CM’s wife. He submitted that Khera had been absconding and all the allegations against her were false.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosChanakya Today Exit Poll: BJP Sweep In Bengal, DMK Ahead In TN, Assam Favours NDAUS Hands Back 657 Stolen Antiquities Worth $14 Million To India, Exposes Global Smuggling NetworksNaval Anti-ship Missile : Navy, Drdo Demonstrate Salvo Launch That Can Sink ShipsECI Introduces New QR Code Photo ID Rule To Prevent Unauthorised Entry At Counting CentresCCTV Shows Car Plunging Into Gorge In Una, Himachal | Tyre Burst Suspected, 2 KilledDelhi HC Freezes Sunjay Kapur Assets, Restrains Priya Kapur In High-Stakes Inheritance DisputeLet’s Not Choose For People: Supreme Court Pulls Up Centre Over Minor Rape Survivor’s Pregnancy Case’Sonia Gandhi Takes Decisions’: Congress President Kharge On Karnataka CM Change BuzzHafiz Saeed’s Aides Hunted Down: Lashkar-e-Taiba Loses Commanders to Mysterious KillingsRecord Bengal Turnout at 92.9%, SIR Row and Voter Surge Complicate Poll Reading123Photostories5 small home changes that can reduce stress without spending moneyMorning affirmation at 5am: The first thoughts you choose each morning shape everything afterFrom opening up about his troubled childhood and growing up in a violent home to facing bullying at school; Sidharth Bhardwaj recalls his traumatic pastThis Indian street food is crowned Prayagraj’s official signature dish8 South Indian dishes among the Top 100 Pancakes in the WorldVirat Kohli: 7 life lessons to learn from the RCB cricketerTV serials with strong woman leads, ‘Naamkaran’, ‘Neema Denzongpa and others- check the list hereHow to make Rajasthani Gatte Ka Pulao for summer dinner5 most crowded national parks in the USA; what travellers should knowGokuldham society’s plot twists that no one saw coming: From Tapu going bald to Babu Ji going to jail123Hot PicksExit Poll Result 2026Bengal Election 2026Bengal ElectionPM ModiAjay Pal SharmaBengal Poll RecordHimanta Biswa SarmaTop TrendingPune Gas LeakBengaluru Wall CollapseVande Bharat expressDelhi NewsPawan KheraTripura Madhyamik Result 2026CBSE Class 12th ResultMumbai Police DeathBSE AP SSC Class 10th ResultIPL Orange Cap
