BREAKING Justices G.R. Swaminathan and V. Lakshminarayanan of #MadrasHighCourt ask how can cow slaughter be permitted in public places during Bakrid when such slaughter could be done only in designated places. They raise the question during the hearing of a public interest litigation petition filed by a youth wing member of Indu Makkal Katchi. The judges intend to pass detailed orders by the end of the day and say the entire onus will be put on the district administration and the police to ensure that the court order gets implemented in letter and spirt.

Justices G.R. Swaminathan and V. Lakshminarayanan of #MadrasHighCourt adjourn to May 29, 2026 the hearing on a case filed by temple activist T.R. Ramesh against amendment of statutory rules to permit deposit of temple funds in State owned non banking finance corporations such as Tamil Nadu Power Finance Corporation and Tamil Nadu Transport Development Finance Corporation. Senior Counsel S. Ravi, representing the petitioner, claims, the HR&CE department had deposited ₹2,700 crore of temple funds in these NBFCs over the last 10 years though their rating is the lowest. Advocate General Vijay Narayan and Additional Advocate General P.V. Balasubramaniam, representing the TN Government and TN Power Finance Corporation respectively, oppose any kind of interim order. They seek time to file detailed counter affidavits. Judges want to know by the next hearing as to whether the Tamil Nadu governnment would be willing to give a sovereign guarantee that the temple funds will be safe irrespective of the place of deposit. @THChennai Backgrounder👇

Justice Swaminathan says the Director of Vigilance and Anti Corruption is a post that was once occupied by stalwarts. Now it has been occupied by Mr. Arun. We didn’t want to say a word against him in his absence and therefore, we summoned him, the judges add. They decide to take up the HCP after the completion of all cases listed before them today. Hearing passed over once again.

Government Counsel (criminal side) R. John Sathyan says it was a mistake. Justice Swaminathan now goes into the merits of the habeas corpus petition which has challenged the Goondas detention order issued by Mr. Arun. Judge says an atrocious order has been passed by the IPS officer and the court intends to make some strong observations against him. He says the court wanted to put the officer on notice before making the comments and hence he had been summoned to the court today.
