The Supreme Court considered closing the criminal defamation case against Shashi Tharoor over his “scorpion on a Shivling” remark about Narendra Modi. While Tharoor sought adjournment, the complainant wanted a hearing, but the bench suggested dismissing the case, emphasizing tolerance among political figures. The court eventually scheduled the matter for another day, maintaining a previous order that had suspended proceedings.
