outlookindia.com 2021-02-25T09:15:00+05:30 On January 28, 2021, Kunal Kamra filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court of India stating that no judicial office in India was above jokes and satire. He had earlier tweeted a saffron-tinged image of the Supreme Court with the Indian national flag on its rampart replaced with the flag of the Bharatiya Janata Party. He had also described a Supreme Court judge, who had given a decision in favour of a rich litigant as “a flight attendant serving champagne to first class passengers after they’re fast tracked through, while commoners don’t know if they’ll ever be boarded or seated, let alone served”. Both of these tweets, Kamra implied, were satirical, meant to “afflict the comfortable”. They could not be contempt of court since neither were intended to insult the court nor could the court’s reputation be diminished by “a few jokes on Twitter”, he contended.
