NEW DELHI, Jan 20 (PTI): The Supreme Court on Tuesday came down heavily on former Union minister Maneka Gandhi for her remarks criticising apex court orders in the stray dog issue, saying she has committed contempt of court.

However, a bench of Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta and N V Anjaria said it is not initiating contempt of court proceedings against Gandhi because of the court’s magnanimity.

The bench said the former minister has made “all kinds of comments” against everyone without even thinking.
