Indian Courts Issue Key Rulings on Property, Banking, Mediation, and Crime

Recent Indian judicial decisions span consumer property rights, banking bond valuations, political mediation claims, and high‑profile criminal appeals. A Mumbai consumer court barred exclusive sale of common terraces, while YES Bank evaluates a Supreme Court ruling on AT‑1 bond write‑downs. Meanwhile, former President Trump touted a mediation role in India‑Pakistan tensions, and the Allahabad High Court hears death‑sentence appeals in the notorious Blue Drum murder case.
