Retired police officers demand 'balanced' narrative on Parliament march violence
Retired police officers, via the Delhi Police Retired Non-Gazeted Officers' Association, defended the Delhi Police's handling of the July 20 Parliament march violence.
Former Uttar Pradesh DGP and Rajya Sabha MP Brij Lal stated 128 police personnel were injured, and criticized the 'one-sided' narrative.
Lal detailed the graded response for crowd control: water cannons, tear gas, then lathi charge, and defended pellet guns as non-lethal and legally upheld by the Supreme Court.
Retired ACP Rajender Pathania appealed for public understanding of police sacrifices and role in maintaining law and order.
