National Anthem In Courts:

The matter was mentioned by advocate Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay before a bench of Justices Dipak Misra and Amitava Roy, the same bench which passed the November 30 order. A bench of justices Dipak Misra and Amitava Roy said it is not inclined to entertain the plea of BJP spokesperson Ashwani Kumar Upadhyay.

The Supreme Court declined to take up a plea to make the playing of the National Anthem mandatory in all courts without a formal petition and asked the lawyer to file a proper plea.
