The plea has sought a FIR and investigation by a SIT against the BJP’s Kapil Mishra, Parvesh Verma and Abhay Verma, as well as Sports Minister Anurag Thakur
New Delhi:
The Supreme Court on Friday gave the Delhi High Court three months to decide on a plea seeking a FIR against BJP leaders, including a union minister, over alleged hate speeches that incited the 2020 Delhi riots.
The plea by victims of the violence that engulfed the national capital last year sought registration of a FIR and an investigation by a special investigation team (SIT) against the BJP’s Kapil Mishra, Parvesh Verma and Abhay Verma, as well as Sports Minister Anurag Thakur.
The Delhi High Court has been asked to hear the matter expeditiously.
