Only Parliament can oust HC judge: VP Jagdeep Dhankhar amid impeachment call
Thursday, 13 February 2025 Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar emphasized that only Parliament has the authority to remove a high court judge constitutionally. This follows a notice by opposition MPs seeking the impeachment of Justice Shekhar Yadav of Allahabad HC for purportedly controversial remarks at a Vishva Hindu Parishad event.
New Zealand’s Parliament suspended three opposition lawmakers, Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, over their haka performance in protest of a controversial bill. The bill, supported by the conservative government, sparked backlash from the Māori community, with critics claiming it represented an anti-Māori agenda. This protest, the most severe disciplinary action against lawmakers in New Zealand’s history, signals a growing debate over Māori culture’s role in public life and the nation’s push for Indigenous rights.
