Karur stampede: Caveat filed in SC against Madras HC's jobs order

A caveat petition was filed in the Supreme Court challenging the Madras High Court order.

The High Court had quashed the Tamil Nadu government's decision to provide compassionate jobs to families of Karur stampede victims.

The High Court ruled the decision violated Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution.

The caveat petition seeks to ensure the Supreme Court hears the state's side before any order.
