Was Pellet Gun Use On Delhi Student Protesters Justified? BJP, Congress And Legal Experts Debate

On India First with Gaurav Sawant, political representatives and legal experts debate the heavy-handed police response and the controversial deployment of pellet guns during student demonstrations in Delhi. Former Uttar Pradesh Director General of Police Dr. Vikram Singh analyzed the strict legal framework governing crowd control under the BNSS, emphasizing that force must strictly follow non-lethal, graduated protocols. While Congress spokesperson Adil Singh Boparai accused the administration of treating youth like political adversaries and demanding total accountability for police excess, BJP spokesperson Tuhin Sinha highlighted intelligence reports indicating that thousands of individuals with criminal antecedents infiltrated the demonstrations. Supreme Court advocate Jayant Dehadra defended law enforcement officers, arguing that police faced massive stone pelting and severe violence while attempting to protect public infrastructure. The panel fiercely debated whether executive intervention, withdrawal of FIRs, or strict disciplinary proceedings against errant police personnel are appropriate next steps following the Supreme Court's latest observations on peaceful protest.
