A lawyer tried to hurl a shoe at CJI B R Gawai during Supreme Court proceedings on Monday, an act that has drawn condemnation from across the political spectrum. Prime Minister Modi called the attack ‘utterly reprehensible’ and praised the Chief Justice’s dignified response. The opposition has used the incident to criticize the government, with leaders like Sonia and Rahul Gandhi terming it an ‘attack on the Constitution’. RJD’s Tejaswi Yadav stated, "the shoe wasn’t thrown at the Chief Justice, but at the Constitution and the idols of Babasaheb Ambedkar." The opposition contends that the incident is a reflection of an atmosphere of intolerance that has been normalized since 2014. In response, the Supreme Court Bar Association has condemned the lawyer’s attempt. An unidentified speaker in the transcript blamed social media for distorting a hearing and projecting something that did not happen.
