Mamata Banerjee's Supreme Court Appearance Sparks Heated Debate

• Mamata Banerjee appeared in the Supreme Court for a voter roll revision hearing, a move some called 'historic' as a sitting CM argued her own case.
• The Supreme Court's order did not mention Banerjee's presence or arguments, only briefly noting submissions by her senior counsel, Shyam Divan and Gopal Sankaranarayanan.
• Critics like Kanchan Gupta and Mahesh Jethmalani dismissed her appearance as 'theatrics' and 'grandstanding', noting the court did not record her presence.
• Supporters, including Trinamool Congress MP Saugata Roy and analyst Prof Saikat Sinha Roy, lauded her for fearlessly taking on the system and championing her electorate's cause.
• Legal experts questioned the procedural irregularities, such as her arguing alongside engaged counsel and her vehicle's special entry, calling it a breach of court norms.
