SC took up 10 cases suo motu in 2024, most remain inconclusive

SC exercised its suo motu power a record 10 times this year, addressing diverse issues, from a Calcutta HC judge’s contentious order to the rape-murder at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College. Despite numerous interventions, many cases remain unresolved. The SC also took independent action on issues like environmental conservation, judicial recruitment policies, and the functioning of courts.
