The Supreme Court is hearing YouTuber and Podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia's petition today, seeking the clubbing of multiple cases filed against him over his controversial remarks made on comedian Samay Raina's show 'India's Got Latent'. A bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh is taking up the case.
The hearing has been scheduled after Allahbadia, who is facing police inquiries, moved the Supreme Court last week asking the FIRs against him to be combined. He also sought anticipatory bail to ward off arrest from Guwahati Police. Last week, Allahbadia's lawyer, Abhinav Chandrachud - the son of former Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud - sought an urgent listing of the matter in the top court. However, the request was turned down by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna.
