The Court was hearing a plea by social activist and Mahatma Gandhi’s great-grandson Tushar Gandhi against former Delhi Police Chief Rakesh Asthana claiming that the controversial Dharam Sansads were allowed to be held in Delhi in December 2021 in violation of Supreme Court orders.
Advocate Shadan Farasat, appearing for Gandhi, underlined that although the investigation was underway, no chargesheet has been filed yet. He claimed that only paperwork is being done.
“Please see the mass oath taking which is Nazi style. FIR was not registered for 5 months. Now the reply says investigation is underway and no chargesheet filed or charges framed. I need action against the action and not action against DGP…Similar matter was before Justice Joseph. When they were called, FIR was registered. Only paper work is being done and what kind of society we will devolve into if action is not taken against this,” he said.
