Supreme Court issues notices to MP Sanjay Raut, journalist Nikhil Wagle over remarks targeting CJI, judiciary

India's Supreme Court has sent notices to Lok Sabha MP Sanjay Raut and journalist Nikhil Wagle after they made comments perceived as targeting the Chief Justice of India and the judiciary.

Both recipients must respond within the prescribed period.
