The Supreme Court of India is set to hear arguments from the Delhi Police today in the ongoing case related to the 2020 Delhi riots, which is being investigated as part of a purported larger conspiracy. The court is expected to examine submissions on the progress and findings of the police investigation, including details of alleged coordination among rioters.
The Delhi Police has maintained that evidence points to a structured plan behind the violence, which left numerous people dead and caused extensive property damage across several parts of the national capital. The police arguments will focus on the need for a thorough investigation into the chain of events and the individuals involved.
The Supreme Court’s hearing comes amid public and political scrutiny of the case, with civil society groups demanding accountability and transparency. Legal experts anticipate that the arguments could determine the scope of investigation and the way forward in holding all responsible parties accountable.
Authorities have urged all parties to maintain law and order during the proceedings and have assured that the investigation is being conducted in line with legal and procedural frameworks.
