PM Modi's Ganesh Puja Visit to CJI's Home Sparks Political Controversy

Opposition questions the integrity of judiciary as BJP defends the Prime Minister's attendance at the Chief Justice's residence.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud's residence for Ganesh Puja, triggering a political row.
Opposition leaders claim the visit compromises the separation of powers between the executive and the judiciary.
Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut suggests CJI Chandrachud should recuse himself from a case involving the Shiv Sena due to perceived bias.
The BJP defends the visit, stating that attending religious functions is not unusual and criticizing the Opposition's reaction as baseless.
Senior lawyer Indira Jaising and other critics argue that the visit undermines public confidence in the judiciary's independence.
