Twelve lawyers wrote a letter to Supreme Court Chief Justice NV Ramana expressing concern over the recent situation in Uttar Pradesh

News Desk: Twelve lawyers wrote a letter to Supreme Court Chief Justice NV Ramana expressing concern over the recent situation in Uttar Pradesh. Among them are judges of the Supreme Court and various High Courts. In Yogi Rajya, houses are being demolished by bulldozers and in this case, the Supreme Court has been asked to take action on its own initiative. Earlier, the Supreme Court had taken its own initiative on the plight of migrant workers, the Pegasus scandal, etc.

Unrest is raging across the country over controversial remarks about Hazrat Mohammad. Protests were held in several parts of Uttar Pradesh against the remarks of ousted BJP leader Nupur Sharma. The government called the protesters rioters and took punitive action against them. From being brutally beaten at the police station to breaking up the house with bulldozers – nothing was left out. Other lawyers wrote this letter to Ramana in the light of that situation.

The letter’s authors include former Supreme Court Justices B Sudarshan Reddy, V Gopala Gowda, A K Ganguly and other former High Court justices. They are accompanied by lawyers. According to the letter, the protesters staged a peaceful protest. But the Uttar Pradesh government is not giving them a chance to speak. On the contrary, the state government is encouraging to take violent action against them. The Chief Minister himself has given special instructions to the officials. He said the perpetrators should be given exemplary punishment so that no one else would do such a thing in the future”.

Uttar Pradesh police have already arrested about 300 people on charges of involvement in the violence. Referring to that issue, the lawyers’ letter said that the rule of law has been broken in the Yogi kingdom. Human rights are being violated. Constitutional rights have been taken to a ridiculous level. A letter has been sent to Ramana demanding that the Supreme Court intervene in such a situation.
