Madras High Court Judge Praises PM Modi's Mann Ki Baat In Book Scam Order

In an unusual judicial observation, Madras High Court's Justice G R Swaminathan praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's radio broadcast <b>Mann Ki Baat</b> while issuing an order concerning alleged irregularities in public library book procurements. Sitting at the court's Madurai Bench alongside Justice M D Sumathi, the judge credited the programme for highlighting achievements of ordinary citizens in remote parts of the country. Introducing the remark as a lighter observation, he invoked Thomas Gray's famous poem to emphasize how rural talent often remains unrecognized without such platforms.
