Former ACP explains police response during mob violence
Retired Delhi Police ACP KP Kukreti stated that permitting the CJP march toward Parliament would have triggered chaos, leaving officers with no choice but to use force. He questioned what options police have when a crowd turns violent, throwing objects, using sticks, breaching barricades, and disregarding Section 163. Kukreti further clarified that it is the senior officers on the ground, not government ministers, who direct police actions.
