Meanwhile, Patna High Court on Thursday took suo motu cognizance of report on the heart-rending video. “This warrants intervention by us in exercise of our jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India and as such we take suo motu cognizance of the news item and issue notice,” said the bench of the Chief Justice Sanjay Karol and Justice S Kumar after the matter was brought to their notice during the course of a hearing, when the latter brought it to the notice of the CJ. On a related note, Shah Rukh lost his father when he was a child and his mother died 30 years ago.
