New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a PIL seeking to replace the term ‘Hindutva’ with ‘Bharatiya Samidhaanitva’ (Indian constitutionalism). A bench headed by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud junked the plea filed by S N Kundra, a resident of Vikaspuri in Delhi. “This is complete abuse of the process,” said […]

The Supreme Court bench, led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, remarked that the petition constituted a "misuse of judicial process" and chose not to entertain the Public Interest Litigation (PIL).

Supreme Court rejects PIL to change 'Hindutva' term, calling it an abuse of process.

One of prominent politicians launching defaming campaigns against ‘Hindutva’ includes senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

'This is complete abuse of the process,' said the bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra while junking the PIL on the issue.
