Overview

• A Bench of Justices J K Maheshwari and N V Anjaria is listed to pronounce the order on October 13, according to the Supreme Court causelist.
• Petitions before the court include TVK’s request for an inquiry led by a former Supreme Court judge and pleas from others, including BJP leader Uma Anandan, for a CBI investigation.
• The Madras High Court had formed a Special Investigation Team under IPS officer Asra Garg, drawing a challenge from TVK to the court’s critical observations about the party’s conduct.
• The Supreme Court earlier noted apparent inconsistencies between a Madurai Bench order declining a CBI probe and the Principal Bench’s directive for an SIT, questioning the procedure.
• The case also features disputes over petitioner authenticity, with two bereaved Dalit families saying CBI pleas were filed in their names without consent and the DMK alleging an attempt to mislead the court.
