Supreme Court hearing in the case of a security lapse during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Punjab continues today. The hearing is being held by a bench headed by Chief Justice NV Ramanna, comprising Justices Surya Kant and Hima Kohli. Senior advocate Maninder Singh had raised the matter of lapse in the security of the Prime Minister before the bench of Chief Justice NV Ramanna. During the hearing, Maninder Singh said that this is not just a law and order issue but an issue under the SPG Act.
Maninder Singh said that this is a statutory responsibility. There can be no hesitation in this. This is a national security issue, not just law and order and the state government has to comply at the statutory level. He said that this is a very serious matter and there has been a huge lapse in the security of the Prime Minister, a clear investigation is necessary for this matter, and action is also necessary against the guilty officials. Singh said that the state government does not have the authority to conduct an inquiry in this matter or in particular the issue related to the SPG Act and the court should conduct an inquiry in this matter.
Canadian terrorist organization Sikh for Justice has also been discussed during the hearing. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta on behalf of the Center also said that the lapse in the security of the PM, in which both the state government and the police administration were responsible, cannot be investigated by the state government. It was said that the presence of NIA in the investigation is also necessary. It was also said that Punjab Home Secretary himself is under investigation and suspicion, so how can he be part of the investigation team?
SG called the matter seriously
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the bench that this rarest of rare matter is very serious and should be treated on that basis. He informed the bench about the incident of lapse in the security of the PM. He also said that the incident of security lapse has brought disrepute to the country at the international level. Then Maninder Singh said that this is not a matter related to law and order, it is a very serious matter. There should be a high-level inquiry in this matter, but it should not be done by the state.
