'Unconstitutional, arbitrary': Supreme Court junks electoral bonds 5-0

The Supreme Court on Thursday declared the electoral bond scheme introduced by the BJP government in 2018 that allowed large-scale anonymous corporate contributions to political parties unconstitutional, ordering State Bank of India to immediately cease issuing bonds and provide up-to-date details of such contributions since April 2019 for publication on the Election Commission's website by March 13.
