A bench comprising Justices Sanjeev Khanna and Dipankar Dutta heard Udayanidhi’s petition on Monday. Abhishek Manu Singhvi appeared on behalf of Udayanidhi Stalin. Supreme bench asked how you are resorting to court after making controversial comments.. The court said that you should know the consequences of your words. That you have abused your right under Article 19(1) of the Constitution, and Article 25 as well. Now commenting that you have filed a PIL in the Supreme Court under Article 32, do you know the consequences of what you have said? The Supreme Bench has objected that you are not an ordinary person, you who are holding the responsibilities as a minister should know the consequences of your words.
