This week predates the archive, and was rebuilt afterwards from the legal press's own record — the headlines, dates and outlets are theirs and unaltered, but nobody was watching that week as it happened. Every entry links to the report it came from.
The weekmachine-written · from the docket below
The Supreme Court this week repeatedly criticized lower courts in Odisha for imposing degrading bail conditions on Adivasi and Dalit accused, while extending protections to acid attack victims and affirming disability pensions as legal rights—underscoring a focus on correcting systemic judicial inequities. Parallel rulings from Madhya Pradesh High Court on reservation mobility and Bombay High Court upholding RBI’s cyber fraud liability limits revealed a broader tension between procedural rigor and social welfare, while regulatory shifts like RBI’s 2026 forex rules and mandatory audits for low-profit firms underscored administrative recalibrations. Delhi High Court’s response to the Kejriwal boycott highlighted procedural clashes in high-profile cases, cementing the judiciary’s role as both arbiter and reform catalyst.
