Police arrested Anil Mishra in a case linked to the alleged burning of Dr BR Ambedkar’s photograph. Authorities later sent him to judicial custody. During the hearing, the court questioned the legality of the arrest and expressed concern over procedural lapses. Following the order, officials will release Mishra from jail the same day.

Senior advocate MP Singh welcomed the verdict and called it a victory of truth. He described the ruling as historic. Singh said the court clearly ruled that the police violated constitutional safeguards while making the arrest. He also highlighted a serious error in the investigation. According to him, police registered the FIR by treating an absconding accused as the complainant. This action raised doubts about the intent of the investigation.

The case involves seven accused in total. Police arrested four people earlier, including Anil Mishra. The bail pleas of the remaining three accused are also pending before the court. Legal experts expect relief for them once hearings conclude.

The verdict has triggered debate over police accountability. Lawyers across Gwalior see the ruling as a strong reminder of constitutional rights.

Justice Ashok Kumar Jain passed the order while hearing a petition filed by Sunil Kumar and other ex-servicemen. The petitioners challenged the recruitment process for librarian posts. Their counsel, Ram Pratap Saini, argued that the reservation policy was openly ignored.

The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board advertised 527 librarian posts. However, officials reserved only nine posts for ex-servicemen. The petitioners said this number violated statutory reservation norms. The court agreed and sought replies from the state government and the selection board.

The board issued the original recruitment advertisement on December 11, 2024. Nearly a year later, on November 28, 2025, it released a revised notification for the examination. The revised plan proposed recruitment on 600 posts. These included 527 posts for non-scheduled areas and 73 posts for scheduled areas.

Despite the increase, authorities allotted only nine general category posts to ex-servicemen. They did not reserve any posts for ex-servicemen in other categories. The court directed that authorities must not appoint candidates from other categories on these posts until further orders.

The court asked the Commission to ensure that all SHOs conduct the elections without pressure and investigate complaints impartially. While the court did not order a direct CFSL examination, it stressed that an independent agency should verify the audio and video material submitted by complainants.

A day before the hearing, the Punjab government sent SSP Varun Sharma on a week-long leave and assigned additional charge to Sangrur SSP Sartaj Singh Chahal. Earlier, Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Badal had released a recording, claiming it captured the SSP instructing officers to obstruct Akali candidates, a claim the Patiala Police dismissed as AI-generated.

The colony traces its roots to 1980, when the Jammu & Kashmir government requested temporary shelter arrangements in Chandigarh for traders visiting to sell dry fruits, shawls and blankets. Small temporary houses were built in Sector-29 for short stays. However, over time, several occupants settled permanently, creating an unauthorized colony.

With the court rejecting the residents’ appeal, the Estate Office is preparing to vacate the houses and bring the land back under administrative control. The affected families, now on the brink of homelessness, await the next steps as eviction orders are expected to be enforced soon.
