UP govt failed to prevent riots, says SC

  • 5 years ago
The Supreme Court today said the Akhilesh Yadav government in Uttar Pradesh had failed to protect the fundamental rights of people in Muzaffarnagar, where nearly 60 people were killed in riots last year.

The court also blamed the state government for negligence, but said there was no need for any probe by a Special Investigation Team or the CBI. The court said, "We prima facie hold the State government responsible for being negligent at the initial stage in not anticipating the communal violence and for taking necessary steps for its prevention."
