The Supreme Court rebukes Karnataka High Court Judge Justice V Srishananda for describing a Bengaluru locality as "Pakistan" during a hearing. A bench led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud emphasized that no Indian region can be labeled as Pakistan, undermining national territorial integrity. Justice Srishananda apologized for his remarks, which also included a derogatory comment about a woman lawyer. The apex court noted the apology and stressed the importance of judicial impartiality, particularly in the social media era. The suo motu proceedings were closed subsequently.
