Bombay High Court Grants Swiss Army Knife Maker Victorinox Relief Against Unauthorized Amazon Listings

Oh man, in P. Vikash Kumar v. A. Mohandass, the court basically called out the advocate for breaking his promise to vacate the place—yeah, that’s civil contempt, no question. The judges weren’t messing around; they made it super clear: play games with court orders, stall for time, try to be clever? Nope. That kind of stuff’s gonna get you punished. Gotta respect the court’s word, or face the music.

Delhi High Court Stays Release of ‘Udaipur Files’, Directs Petitioners to Follow Statutory Route

The Delhi High Court put on hold the release of ‘Udaipur Files’ on July 10, 2025, on charges of procedural non-compliance. Petitioners Jamiat Ulema-i-Hind and journalist Prashant Tandon objected to the CBFC certification of the film for promoting communal disharmony. The Court instructed them to approach the Centre under Section 6 of the Cinematograph Act, 1952. The release of the film is stuck until the government makes a decision within a week after hearing both parties. The decision highlights statutory remedy and a judicious balance between free speech and public order.

Supreme Court Rejects Plea for Exclusive Buddhist Control of Mahabodhi Temple, Refers Matter to Patna HC

In a 2025 judgement, the Supreme Court of India declined to entertain a petition under Article 32 seeking exclusive Buddhist control over the Mahabodhi Temple, Bodh Gaya.

The Court cited procedural grounds, suggesting the matter be taken to the Patna High Court. The case underscores ongoing tensions around religious autonomy and minority rights in sacred site administration.

Supreme Court Rejects Lalit Modi’s Plea to Shift FEMA Penalty to BCCI, Clarifies Limits of Writ Jurisdiction

The Supreme Court dismissed Lalit Modi’s writ petition seeking indemnification from BCCI for a ₹10.65 crore FEMA penalty arising from the 2009 IPL shift to South Africa. It ruled that BCCI is not a “State” under Article 226 for internal financial disputes. While Modi can pursue civil remedies, writ jurisdiction is not applicable for private indemnity claims. The ruling reinforces the boundary between public and private functions of sporting bodies like BCCI.
