The GoI will make disclosure, as regards the allegations against itself,
only to itself - a committee of "experts" chosen by it and tasked to
declare that the allegations are all bogus, and, then, issue a clean chit
to itself and hold its opponents responsible for trying to subvert
"national security".

The highest court of the land must not seek any role in this process except
as a stamping agency for the GoI.

*In short, any serious charge of wrongdoing on the part of the GoI must be
adjudged by the GoI - and only by the GoI, itself; and none else.*
*And it's for the GoI to decide whether the complainants would be charged
for treason. *
*That's meant to be the "New Normal" in "New India".*

The issue is whether the Court just meekly submits or asserts its
Constitutionally assigned authority.
Not to mistake, either way, *this case* *is*, *thus*, *slated to become a
watershed event in the annals of post-Independence India*.

The next hearing is due after nine days.
Let's see - how the dice rolls.

<<Yesterday, the Supreme Court had adjourned the hearing to today to
ascertain if the Union Government wanted to file an additional affidavit in
the matter. This was after the petitioners highlighted that the "limited
affidavit" filed by the Centre has evaded the question whether Government
or its agencies have ever used Pegasus.

Today, the Solicitor General of India Tushar Mehta told the Court that the
affidavit already filed by the Centre in the case is "sufficient" and a
further affidavit is uncalled for. The Solicitor said that if the
Government is disclosing in public that it is not using a particular
interception software, the terrorist organizations will take advantage of
that information to change their communication settings. He said that such
matters cannot be placed in an affidavit and be made a matter of "public
debate". At the same time, the Solicitor added that the Government will
place all the details before the proposed technical committee, which he
assured, will consist only of neutral officers.>>
