However, when Nimrit moved to another corner of the courtroom, the man started following her and he not only did the same thing but also tried to put his hand inside her shirt.
'I felt someone's hand on my butt first. I thought I was overthinking it because everyone was in close contact. I looked back, and this guy was looking straight ahead—not making eye contact or even acknowledging my presence. I started getting a little anxious, and thought, okay, let me just change my position. Then, I felt someone touch my hand and it was the same guy again. He had moved from behind along with me, then again he did that to touched my butt. I could feel tears well up in my eyes, I was in such a state of shock," Nimrit told Hauterrfly.
She then shared that a female lawyer noticed and asked whether she was feeling uncomfortable. As soon as Nimrit nodded yes, the lawyer slammed the man and even slapped him. Later, the police officials took care of the matter. Nimrit also expressed gratitude towards the lawyer for helping her that day.
'It's just that you mentally feel like you're in a safe space because you're standing in the Supreme Court—and yet, it still happened," she said.

Calcutta HC restraints Bengal from paying monthly stipend to sacked non-teaching staff

The Calcutta High Court on Friday directed the West Bengal government to stop paying monthly stipends to a group of non-teaching staff who had been sacked after the Supreme Court in April found irregularities in the 2016 recruitment process, Live Law reported. On June 9, Justice Amrita Sinha had reserved the judgement in the matter but had stayed the state government's plan to provide monthly stipends of Rs 20,000 to Rs 25,000 to the persons. In its Friday order, the court reinforced that restriction, prohibiting such payments till at least September 26. Sinha issued the direction on a writ petition challenging the provision of the allowance to the staff whose services had been terminated. The petition was filed by a candidate on the waitlist who was not recruited despite being on the merit list, allegedly due to irregularities in the hiring process. On April 3, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's April 2024 order terminating the appointment of about 25,000 teachers and non-teaching staff by West Bengal's School Service Commission. The bench passed the order after observing that the recruitment process was 'vitiated by manipulation and fraud'. The top court on April 17 permitted 'untainted' teachers to be retained until the end of the academic year or until fresh appointments are made, whichever was earlier. However, it did not grant relief to the non-teaching staff, or Group C and Group D employees, whose appointments were also cancelled. In response, the state government had announced in April that the sacked non-teaching staff would receive a monthly allowance until the Supreme Court delivered a verdict on its review petitions. On Friday, the High Court criticised the state for attempting to financially assist individuals whose employment had been declared fraudulent by the Supreme Court and directed 'tainted' candidates to 'refund any salary/payment received', Live Law reported. By introducing a stipend scheme, the state was undermining the Supreme Court's decision, the High Court observed. 'Once the highest court of the land has decided the issue of illegal appointment conclusively and opined that the appointments were result of fraud, no person who was the beneficiary of a fraudulent act of the statutory authority ought to be provided any support, that too, from the public exchequer,' the court said. The court also instructed the state government to submit its counter-affidavit addressing the petitioners' claims within four weeks, and allowed the petitioners two weeks after that to file their response, PTI reported. In April 2024, the High Court had passed its direction on the termination of the appointments based on the findings of a re-evaluation of the Optical Mark Recognition sheets from the 2016 recruitment examination in the case. The re-evaluation found that the selected teachers had been recruited against blank Optical Mark Recognition sheets.

SC stays Telangana HC's probe into govt land fraud in Shamshabad

HYDERABAD: The Supreme Court has stayed the Telangana HC's probe into fraudulent ownership claims over 100 acres of govt land in Shamshabad. A Supreme Court bench of Justice MM Sundresh and Justice Rajesh Bindal passed this interim order after hearing a special leave petition filed by Mohammed Taher Khan of Hyderabad challenging the HC order against his claim. On April 10, a bench headed by Justice T Vinod Kumar of the Telangana HC concluded that Khan's claim was based on fabricated documents and directed the state to constitute a special investigation team to probe. He directed the judicial registrar of the HC to file an FIR before Charminar police station as the claimant went to the extent of creating fake judicial orders to grab govt land. The HC bench passed this order while hearing a plea by HMDA which questioned a Rangareddy civil court order. Putting forward the case of HMDA, additional advocate general T Rajanikanth Reddy said litigants have been resorting to fraudulent means to grab govt land to the extent of 180 acres (including the current 100 acres) at Shamshabad acquired by the state in 1990. The HC bench had a probe done internally and concluded that the claimants created judicial orders purported to have been passed in 1988 in the name of Justice N D Patnaik, who was not even elevated as an HC judge at that time. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo The bench ordered fresh FIR and a probe by govt.
