SC slams trend of casting doubt on Telangana HC judges in cases involving politicians

New Delhi, Aug 11 (UNI) The Supreme Court today criticised the growing tendency among litigants and lawyers to assume that justice cannot be delivered by High Courts in matters involving political figures, warning that such unfounded allegations amount to contempt of court.
A bench of Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai, Justice K. Vinod Chandran, and Justice Atul S. Chandurkar was hearing a case where it had earlier issued notice to litigant Peddi Raju and his counsel, asking why contempt proceedings should not be initiated against them for allegedly making scurrilous allegations against Telangana High Court judge Justice Moushumi Bhattacharya.
The allegations were made in a petition seeking transfer of a case, in which Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy had secured relief away from the Telangana High Court.
