Supreme Court Adjourns Brinda Karat's Plea For FIRs Against Anurag Thakur & Parvesh Verma For Alleged Hate Speech

Live Law  

Today's hearing was adjourned at the behest of Delhi police, despite the petitioners opposing the request. Background Communist Party of India leaders Brinda Karat and KM Tiwari approached the Delhi High Court in a criminal writ petition after a trial court refused to accept their plea for registration of first information reports against the BJP leaders. In August 2020, a trial court in Delhi dismissed the petitioners’ application filed under Section 156 of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking registration of an FIR for offences under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, observing that prior sanction under Section 196 of the Code was required even at the initial stage, which had not been obtained by Karat and Tiwari. But, in June 2022, the Delhi High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Karat and Tiwari against the trial court order. In April this year, the Supreme Court issued notice on a special leave petition filed by the petitioners against the Delhi High Court’s order of dismissal.
