No video-conference links on WhatsApp: Supreme Court
New Delhi, February 27
Days after the Centre announced the tightening of rules governing social media and streaming companies, the Supreme Court on Saturday decided to stop sharing video-conference links for court hearings with WhatsApp groups.
"It is notified for the information of the advocates-on-record/party-in-persons that the creation of groups in WhatsApp for sharing of VC links for hearing of their matters is restricted/barred due to new guidelines or regulations issued by the Government of India pertaining to social media apps and OTT platforms," the SC announced.
It said with effect from March 1, video-conference links would be shared through registered email IDs as well as by SMS on registered mobile numbers of the advocates-on-record/party-in-persons.
The court has partially modified its July 4, 2020, SOP for advocate/party-in-person for e-filing, mentioning, listing and video-conferencing hearing. The decision has been taken in view of the newly notified IT Rules, 2021. — TNS

Raunchy song at CPM rally raises eyebrows
New Delhi, February 27
Gone are the days when Sukanta Bhattacharya's poem was played by Left parties to mobilise crowd for rallies in Kolkata. Instead, "Tumpa Sona", a recent raunchy number released on a web platform, has been turned into a parody by the CPM to draw crowd for the rally jointly organised by the CPM-led Left Front, Congress and Indian Secular Front at Kolkata's Brigade Ground on Sunday.
Justifying the song, Shubha Prasad Nandi Majumdar, cultural activist of the CPM, said turning a popular song into a parody and then singing it at Communist Party events had taken place in Bengal in the past too. "The use of 'Tumpa Sona' by the CPM for drawing crowd for the rally shows how desperate they are to impress voters," Saptarshi Biswas, award winning Bengali poet, said. — TNS
