Supreme Court to Hear Petitions on Delhi Student Protest Police Excesses

Chief Justice Surya Kant clarified the Supreme Court's stance on urgent petitions regarding alleged police excesses against protesting students in Delhi, recommending proper petition filing instead of brief letters. The court will hear two such petitions on Monday. Gopal Sankaranarayanan, a senior lawyer, highlighted the urgency and alleged daily incidents of excessive force by the police. The protest began on June 6 over NEET paper leaks and exam irregularities, with at least 47 people removed from the National Testing Agency (NTA) in subsequent actions.
