Supreme Court Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has strongly criticised the alleged police assault on students and other protesters during a demonstration at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar. Describing the incident as “very, very distressing,” the judge said he was dismayed to see police personnel allegedly using force against protesters. The remarks came amid a wider controversy surrounding the CJP protest and allegations of police excesses. The incident has triggered concerns over the handling of peaceful demonstrations and police conduct. The developments have also intensified scrutiny of the authorities as legal and political attention remains focused on the Jantar Mantar protest row. (PC: AFP)
