Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav: A Judge at the Center of Controversy

Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav of the Allahabad High Court made controversial remarks at a Vishwa Hindu Parishad event, stating India operates by the majority’s wishes.

His judgments often support laws for religious figures, cow protection, and cultural education.

Critics, including Senior Advocate Rebecca John, argue these views show bias, violate constitutional secularism, and breach his judicial oath. 

The comments have drawn widespread criticism, raising concerns about judicial impartiality, accountability, and the Supreme Court Collegium’s role in addressing such issues.
