In a dramatic turn of events, lawyer Rakesh Kishore—who recently made headlines for allegedly throwing a shoe at the Chief Justice of India (CJI)—has been identified as belonging to the Dalit community. The incident, which occurred during a court proceeding, has sparked intense debate across political and social circles.
Rakesh Kishore, described by some as a Sanatani lawyer, reportedly expressed his frustration over judicial decisions he believed were unjust. His act of protest has drawn both condemnation and support, with reactions sharply divided along ideological lines.
Following the revelation of Kishore’s Dalit identity, social media platforms lit up with commentary. Some users claimed that this development challenges certain political narratives, while others criticized the act as disrespectful and inappropriate regardless of background.

The incident has also triggered political reactions, with some suggesting that it puts pressure on parties like Congress and groups associated with Dalit activism to respond. The phrase “blue eggs hiding in their shells” has surfaced online as a metaphorical jab, though its meaning remains subject to interpretation.
As the legal community and public await further details, the episode raises broader questions about dissent, courtroom decorum, and the intersection of caste and protest in India’s justice system.
