Now, a selection of the state DGP will be done by a committee headed by a retired chief justice or a judge of the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Pointing out that the Special Investigation Team (SIT) failed to register a case against Kataruchak, the BJP leader asked how then can it claim that the victim has retracted his statement.
The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Tuesday asked the state government that "how is everyone arrested, except Amritpal Singh", adding that "if he has he escaped, this is an intelligence failure".
The Supreme Court Collegium has recommended the transfer of two High Court Chief Justices and three judges, while three more judges have been recommended for elevation.
Former minister Bikram Singh Majithia said the latest order from the state chief secretary taking back the inquiry from the vigilance department and entrusting it to the Amritsar police had shaken the faith of the people in the Congress government.
The court observed that it was 'terrible thinking' on the part of police to have assumed that 'every black is a drug peddler' and that visitors from the continent much be treated with dignity and respect.
The note attached to the cause list of cases issued for Monday by the Punjab and Haryana HC read, 'It is for the information of respected members of the Bar that Hon'ble Justice S Muralidhar has requested that they may try and avoid addressing him as 'your lordship' or 'my lord'.'
Justice Murlidhar took a strong stand and pulled up the Delhi police asking them to sit and watch all videos of hate speeches made in the recent past and submit a report by Thursday when it will hear the matter again.
Incidentally, there are not many Ashok Khemkas (transferred over 50 times in 27 years’ service and counting) who have the guts to stand up against hidden agendas, ill-desired policies, corruption, exploitation etc. to remain aligned with democratic ideals.
