After hearing a PIL which was filed on the death of a four-months infant that happened at the Shaheen Bagh protest opposing the CAA bill the Supreme Court has issued notices to Central and the Delhi governments.
The apex court asked how can a 4-month-old child who lost lief of the Delhi cold at the protest can take part in the protests.
A constitution bench led by CJI SA Bobde strongly opposed some lawyers opposing the apex court taking this case as suo moto.
"Can a 4-month-old child be taking part in such protests," the bench asked.
"We are not stifling any voice. This is a properly constituted suo motu proceedings by the Supreme Court of India," the bench said.
The apex court took the issue as suo moto after Zen Gunratan Sadavarte National bravery award winner written a letter to the court and said that minors should be barred from taking part in any sort of protest and agitations.
"We are not considering either CAA or NRC. We are not considering the abuses like Pakistani hurled in schools", the bench added.
