In a shocking incident on December 13, a major security breach occurred in the Indian Parliament, raising concerns about the safety and integrity of the nation's legislative hub. Two individuals, identified as Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D, infiltrated the Lok Sabha chamber, releasing yellow smoke from canisters and shouting slogans during the ongoing Zero Hour. Simultaneously, two others, Amol Shinde and Neelam Devi, created chaos outside the Parliament House premises by releasing colored smoke and chanting "tanashahi nahi chalegi" (dictatorship will not be tolerated). Lalit Jha, the fifth accused, allegedly circulated videos of the protest on social media.
In response to the security breach, a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Supreme Court, seeking a court-monitored investigation under the supervision of a retired Supreme Court judge. The PIL, filed by lawyer Abu Sohel through advocate Shruti Bist, urges the court to pass appropriate writs, orders, or directions for an "independent, credible, and impartial judicial investigation into the matter."
The plea emphasizes the need for a comprehensive inquiry into the major security lapse that unfolded within the lower house of Parliament. It specifically calls for the involvement of a retired Supreme Court judge to oversee the investigation, ensuring transparency and impartiality.
Delhi Police have taken swift action in response to the breach, arresting six individuals implicated in various roles related to the incident. The arrested individuals include Sagar Sharma, Manoranjan D, Amol Shinde, Neelam Devi, Lalit Jha, and Mahesh Kumawat. The ongoing probe aims to uncover the motives behind the breach and any potential connections to larger security concerns.
As the Supreme Court is currently on a winter break until January 1, the legal proceedings and any subsequent decisions regarding the PIL may unfold in the new year.
