Kerala Congress Post on CJI Row: SC Bar Association Condemns Tweet, BJP Slams Attack on Judiciary

A political controversy erupted after Kerala Congress targeted Chief Justice of India Surya Kant on social media, demanding his resignation after he declined a meeting with opposition leaders on a sub judice matter. The Supreme Court Bar Association strongly condemned the remarks, stating that such posts belittle the judiciary and interfere with the administration of justice. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju and the Bharatiya Janata Party slammed the Congress party, alleging attempts to undermine constitutional institutions. Following widespread criticism from the bar association and political leaders, the Kerala Congress deleted the contentious social media post.
