India's Got Latent row: Supreme Court to hear Ranveer Allahbadia’s plea today
By : Sandhya
The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear influencer Ranveer Allahbadia’s plea on Tuesday, seeking the clubbing of multiple FIRs filed against him for alleged obscene remarks made on comedian Samay Raina's YouTube show, India’s Got Latent. A bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh is expected to take up the case.
On Friday, Abhinav Chandrachud, the son of former CJI DY Chandrachud, sought an urgent listing of the matter in the top court. Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna assured that the case would be assigned to a bench and taken up within two to three days.
The controversy erupted after Allahbadia made objectionable remarks on Samay Raina's YouTube show, leading to multiple FIRs against him and others. Apart from Allahbadia and Raina, those named in the Assam case include YouTube celebrities Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Makhija.
