    The Supreme Court has taken note of the reports about the controversial speech given by Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav, judge of the Allahabad High Court, at an event organised by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Sunday. The Court has sought details of the speech from the Allahabad High Court.

The details and particulars have been called from the High Court and the matter is under consideration," a press statement issued by the Court stated.

    Justice Yadav's speech has come under widespread criticism as being communal and derogatory towards the Muslim community. He said that the country will function as per the wishes of the majority and used the slur "kathmulla" in his speech.
