"If CJI does not take action against Nishikant Dubey...": Congress leader Shama Mohammed hits out at BJP MP - World News Network

New Delhi [India], April 20 (ANI): Congress leader Shama Mohammed on Sunday said that attacks against the judiciary will continue in the future if Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna does not take any action against BJP MP Nishikant Dubey for his recent remarks.
Speaking to ANI, Congress leader Shama Mohammed also demanded that the BJP expel the Godda MP from the party.
“MP Nishikant Dubey is saying that whatever is happening in this country, like civil wars, is because of Sanjiv Khanna, the CJI. He said that the judiciary is inciting religious issues. Today, I want to ask Sanjiv Khanna, the CJI, what action he will take if there is contempt of court. What action will you take against him? My leader, Rahul Gandhi, is saying all the time that the constitution is in danger. Action will have to be taken against him soon. If you do not do it today, many people will likely attack the judiciary or the justice system tomorrow. BJP should also take action, and they should expel him from the party,” Shama Mohammed told ANI.
Earlier, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey alleged that the Supreme Court was “inciting religious wars” and questioned its authority, suggesting that the Parliament building should be closed if the apex court was to make laws.
“The top court has only one aim: ‘Show me the face, and I will show you the law’. The Supreme Court is going beyond its limits. If one has to go to the Supreme Court for everything, then Parliament and State Assembly should be shut,” Dubey told ANI.
Referring to past decisions of the court, Dubey criticised the judiciary for its handling of issues like the decriminalisation of homosexuality and religious disputes.
“There was an Article 377 in which homosexuality was a big crime. The Trump administration has said that there are only two sexes in this world, either male or female…Whether it is Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Jain or Sikh, all believe that homosexuality is a crime. One fine morning, the Supreme Court said that we abolish this case…Article 141 says that the laws we make, the judgments we give, are applicable from the lower court to the Supreme Court. Article 368 states that Parliament has the authority to enact all laws, and the Supreme Court has the power to interpret the law. The top court is asking the President and Governor to tell what they have to do regarding the Bills. When the Ram Mandir, Krishna Janmabhoomi, or Gyanvapi issue arises, you (SC) say, ‘Show us the paper’. Mughals ke aane ke baad jo Masjid banne hai unke liye keh raho ho paper kaha se dikhao,” he added.
Dubey further alleged that the Supreme Court want to take this country towards “anarchy.”
“How can you give direction to the appointing authority? The President appoints the Chief Justice of India. The Parliament makes the law of this country. You will dictate that Parliament?… How did you make a new law? In which law is it written that the President has to take a decision within three months? This means that you want to take this country towards anarchy. When the Parliament sits, there will be a detailed discussion on this,” he said.
Meanwhile, the BJP has “completely rejected” and distanced itself from the controversial remarks made by Nishikant Dubey on the Supreme Court and the Chief Justice of India. (ANI)
