SC issues notice to Assam Govt on plea against demolition drive, orders status quo
The Supreme Court on Monday issued notice to the Assam government on a plea accusing it of contempt by allegedly flouting the court’s September 17 interim direction to pause demolitions anywhere in the country without its permission. A bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan also directed that the status quo shall be maintained in the meantime.
