The Opposition-sponsored notice to move an impeachment motion against Justice G.R. Swaminathan of the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court was submitted to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Tuesday (December 9, 2025).
DMK parliamentary party leader Kanimozhi, party’s Lok Sabha leader T.R. Baalu, Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi, and others handed over the notice with the signatures of INDIA bloc MPs.
The Opposition’s decision to move an impeachment motion against Justice Swaminathan comes against the backdrop of his order directing the authorities of the Subramaniya Swamy Temple at Thirupparankundram, Madurai, to ensure that the Karthigai Deepam was lit at the deepathoon (pillar) near a dargah atop the hill.
