A bench headed by Chief Justice NV Ramana took note of the submissions of senior advocate Kapil Sibal that no action had been taken against those who made the hate speeches despite registration of an FIR.

“I have moved this PIL in respect of what happened in Dharam Sansad in Haridwar on December 17 and 19. We are living in difficult times where slogan in the country has changed from ‘Satyamev Jayate’” Sibal said.

“All right, we will take up the matter,” the CJI said. PTI
