New Delhi: The Supreme Court, on Wednesday, urged law enforcement agencies to exercise restraint when dealing with young protesters.
If the government bends backwards in a matter concerning the national capital, will it not set a precedent in Rajasthan?
The CJI responded this and said that even if some “misguided elements” indulge in stone-throwing, youngsters are required to be pacified and counselled.
The focus should be on ensuring peaceful protests while exercising restraint if an incident occurs, the CJI observed.
If some incident takes place, the police also need to exercise a great deal of restraint to ensure that the situation does not go out of hand.
