NEW DELHI: The Indian judiciary has become partisan of the Modi government as the Supreme Court on Thursday rejected Public Interest Litigation (PIL), asking for a probe into the Pahalgam attack, criticizing the petitioner for acting irresponsibly during a time of national crisis.
A bench led by Justice Surya Kant, with Justice N Kotiswar Singh, heard the PIL in the Indian Supreme Court.
The plea was submitted by three Jammu and Kashmir residents, Mohammad Junaid, Fatesh Kumar Sahu, and Vicky Kumar, and also requested the establishment of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to ensure responsibility for the attack.
It also urged the central government and the Union Territory administration to take steps to protect other visitors in the region.
“Don’t demoralise our forces by filing such petitions, You owe a responsibility to the country. And this is the way you choose to demoralise our forces?”, the bench observed while hearing the plea.
The Court rejected the PIL after a short hearing and permitted them to raise concerns regarding student safety before the appropriate high court.
