HC refuses to stay ‘hate speech’ case against Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra
The HinduThe Delhi High Court on Tuesday declined to stay trial court proceedings against Delhi Law Minister and senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra for allegedly posting “communally polarising” messages on social media ahead of the 2020 Delhi Assembly election. Justice Ravinder Dudeja issued notice to Delhi Police on the Karawal Nagar MLA’s plea challenging a sessions court order dismissing his petition against a summons by a magisterial court in the case. ‘Objectionable statements’ The matter pertains to a show-cause notice by the Election Commission of India to Mr. Mishra for his “objectionable statements” on X, such as “February 8th will be India vs. Pakistan in Delhi”. ‘Hatred for votes’ While dismissing his plea on March 7, special judge Jitendra Singh had observed, “The word ‘Pakistan’ is very skilfully weaved in his alleged statements to spew hatred, careless to communal polarisation that may ensue in the election campaign, only to garner votes.” “The implicit reference underlying the particular ‘country’ in the alleged statement is an unmistaken innuendo to persons of a particular ‘religious community’, apparent to generate enmity amongst religious communities.
