Aadhaar is one of the high-profile cases in the top court today. Earlier in the day, the court heard the Kerala Love Jihad case and ordered Hadiya, the woman at the centre of the controversy, to be produced before it on November 27. The SC will later take up the challenges to Article 35A, which provides special rights and privileges to permanent residents of Jammu and Kashmir. It’s an action-packed day in the Supreme Court. Stay tuned for all the LIVE updates: Oct 30, 2017 4:26 pm (IST) In a press conference, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee said that she respects the Supreme Court’s directive asking her to challenge the linking of Aadhaar in an individual capacity. “They have not rejected my petition,” she says. "How can a state file such a plea. In a federal structure, how can a state file a plea challenging Parliament's mandate," a bench comprising Justices AK Sikri and Ashok Bhushan had said earlier in the day. Oct 30, 2017 4:24 pm (IST) The Surpeme Court has deferred the hearing in the Article 35-A case by two months. While the Centre had sought a time of six months, the apex court decided to adjourn the case for eight weeks. Article 35-A provides special rights and privileges to permanent residents of Jammu and Kashmir.
