Supreme Court bench of CJI Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana declined to take suo motu cognisance of police action against protesters at Jantar Mantar.
The bench told an advocate not to waste judicial time on issues not before the court and refused to watch video footage of the lathicharge.
Supreme Court Bar Association led by senior advocate Vikas Singh passed a resolution condemning the “brutal lathicharge on innocent students” and sought an inquiry.
