Supreme Court asks UP government  to reconsider its stand to hold symbolic Kanwar Yatra

In a significant judgement, the Supreme Court on Thursday directed political <keyword id="15047" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Parties">parties</keyword> to upload on their respective websites the details of all pending criminal cases against candidates contesting polls, citing the alarming increase in criminalisation of politics in past four general elections. A bench headed by Justice R.F. Nariman said the parties would have to clarify on reasons for selecting candidates with pending criminal cases and upload this information on their websites. The top court also observed that political parties will have to submit a compliance report within 72 hours, to the Election Commission, after selecting candidates having pending criminal cases. The order from the top court came on a contempt plea filed by Advocate Ashwini Upadhyay, raising critical issues due to increase in criminalisation of politics. The plea claimed the directions given by the apex court in its September 2018 verdict, which specified guidelines to disclosure of criminal antecedents by candidates, is not being followed in letter and spirit. The top court also directed that political parties would have to publish this information on their social media platforms like <keyword id="6354576" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="facebook">Facebook</keyword> and <keyword id="6354616" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Twitter">Twitter</keyword> besides publishing this information in one local vernacular and one national newspaper. The apex court directed the poll body to apprise the court if it were to come across failure in compliance with its directions. --IANS ss/skp/

Yesterday, the Chief Justice of India was forced to dismiss two registrars, Manav Sharma and Tapan Chakaraborty, - whose job it is to upload orders on the SC website - for deliberately changing the wording in a document in order to prevent Ambani from making a personal appearance in court, according <a href="https://www.telegraphindia.com/india/supreme-court-sacks-2-of-its-own-over-change-in-order-on-ambani/cid/1684489">to the Telegraph</a>. The order, which was dated January 7, called for Ambani to submit to questioning in court. However, the order which was uploaded reportedly featured a clause, “personal appearance of the alleged contemnor(s) dispensed with”. The word “not” was omitted to suggest that Ambani wasn’t required to show up. After representatives of Ericsson pointed out the mistake, the correct version of the order was uploaded a few days later on January 10. A follow-up inquiry reportedly revealed that the omission of the word “not” was deliberate. Concurrently, the Supreme Court’s verdict in the contempt please case was reserved yesterday. Anil Ambani has made personal appearances for the past two days in front of the bench led by Justice RF Nariman. Earlier this month, Reliance Communications <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/telecom/telecom-news/from-glory-to-dust-an-ambani-brands-journey-to-bankruptcy/articleshow/67837769.cms">commenced insolvency proceedings</a> through the <keyword id="6354457" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="National-Company-Law-Tribunal">National Company Law Tribunal</keyword>. The former telecom major has nearly ₹450 billion in debts. In order to trim its debt burden, Ambani was hoping to secure a mammoth sale of spectrum assets to his brother Mukesh Ambani’s <keyword id="2003276" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jio">Jio</keyword>. However, the deal was called off in December last year. As things stand, Reliance Communications is struggling to find buyers for its assets.

India’s Supreme Court dismisses two staff members for trying to protect Anil Ambani from personal appearance

The <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=supreme+court">Supreme Court</a> did not agree with banks that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=VIJAY+MALLYA">Vijay Mallya</a> should be personally present in the court. 
 
Instead, the apex court issued notices to Mallya, seeking his views on the petition filed for his presence in the court as banks said he had left the country. 
 
Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi, who sought such an order from the court, argued that Mallya’s Twitter messages showed that he may be in London and a court order would force him to come back to the country.

However, Justices Kurian Joseph and RF Nariman sought views from Mallya, United Breweries Holdings and the Indian Embassy in London, on the petition which wants him to disclose the details of all his assets to the court. 
 
Lenders are trying to recover loans worth a whopping Rs 9,000 crore from Mallya related to the now-defunct <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=kingfisher+airlines">Kingfisher Airlines</a> founded by him. 
 
Mallya will have to reply to the notice by March 30, the next date of hearing. The applications also demanded that he furnish adequate guarantees to secure his presence in court.
