SC rejects petitions for panel to inquire into police action on campuses

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to form a committee to inquire into the incidents of police action on students protesting against the citizenship act, and asked all petitioners to approach the high court for redressal of their grievances. "We are confident that the Chief Justices of various high courts will call upon for inquiry, if needed, while appointing a committee including a former judge of the apex court or high court after hearing the union of India and respective states,” the bench, which also included Justice BR Gavai and Justice Suryakant, said. Students from several universities across the country have come out in solidarity with their peers at the national capital’s Jamia Millia Islamia, who saw themselves at the receiving end of the Delhi Police while protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act. A plea was moved in Delhi high court on Monday against police action on protesting students at the Jamia Millia Islamia University.
