The bench further emphasized that the concerned authorities, particularly the public works department and its officials, should be acquainted with the governing statute (rights of persons with disabilities Act 2016) and the national building code to ensure that all instructions contained in the same are adhered to without any exception.

During hearing the Chief Justice Banerjee admitted that when he visited two of the lower courts there were no such facilities made for the differently-abled persons and this to be taken into consideration. He added that he has instructed the principal district judges to ensure that the court gets ramps installed. The courts should have at least one toilet close to the entrance on the ground floor that is disabled-friendly. Concerning this, the new transport buses should also be termed to be disabled-friendly was the court recalled that this has to be directed by the transportation department. Take the comprehensive measures to make all public buildings, particularly where citizens are likely to come they must be disabled friendly, said the Chief Justice to the State.

In the matter, the applicant had applied for bail in Allahabad High Court which was denied by the court on 5th July. The case is relating to the Honor killing where victim Jyoti and Rahul got married o against their family members’ consent. Their families were against their marriage as they belong to a different caste.

It is been alleged that due to the caste difference they still got married which has hurt their family honor that’s the reason the Applicant who is the brother of Jyoti and her other family members had eliminated her and killed shot her husband Rohit.

During the argument, the Applicants Counsel stated that the role of assaulting was done by another family member of the applicants but not by the Applicant himself. The people who are accused to be involved are Jyoti’s father, Jyoti’s Uncle, and her brother.

Justice J.J.Munir of Allahabad High Court while hearing the plea of bail application states that “there is no place for those citizens in the society who go to the extent of eliminating a family member for choosing a life partner of his/her choice”. Court also stated that it is the case of brazen of honor killing where family members of Jyoti have prima facie sought to redeem through this crime. So the court has refused his bail.

Justice Kausik Chanda of Calcutta High Court who was appointed to hear the petition of Mamata Banerjee had recused himself on Wednesday from hearing the Petition. He has also imposed a fine on her of Rs. 5 lakhs for making an application seeking his recusal.

Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee had filed a Petition concerning the Nandigram Assembly election which lost against BJP’s Suvendu Adhikary. She believes some discrepancies were committed in the counting process and asked in her petition to declare the election null and void.

The Case was assigned to Justice Kausik Chanda of Calcutta High Court. After the case been assigned to him Mamata Banerjee had made an application to Justice Rajesh Bindal, the acting Justice of the Calcutta High Court asking for reassignment of to case to some other Justice. Her intention behind this act was that she believed that Justice Chanda will do favoritism as he has some relationship with Bhajpa. She also believed that Justice Chanda will be biased in her case as while his appointment as permanent Judge she objected to it.

Replying to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s application to reassignment Justice Chanda said that there nothing wrong with a judge supporting a political party, like any other citizen they have the right to support and vote. He also said that he had no personal interest in the case and he would have heard and made a judgment on it like any other case without being bias. He also stated that there a whole different reason behind him recusing it. So that no controversies can be made in the interest of Justice.
