Puttaswamy (Retd.) and Another vs. Union of India and Others, has held that the decision in M P Sharma which holds that the right to privacy is not protected by the Constitution stands over-ruled; the decision in Kharak Singh to the extent that it holds that the right to privacy is not protected by the Constitution stands over-ruled and the right to privacy is protected as an intrinsic part of the right to life and personal liberty under Article 21 of Constitution of India, 1950 and as a part of the freedoms guaranteed by Part III of the Constitution.

The Supreme Court of India, in Re: Mohit Chaudhary, Advocate, has held that the conduct of the contemnor is unbecoming of an Advocate-on-Record.

Appropriate course of action would be that the Contemnor is not permitted to practice as an Advocate-on-Record, for a period of one month from the date of the order.
