The petition filed by N D Jaiprakash, an alumnus of JNU, who was hurt in the violence yesterday, sought action against the people involved in the violence and over “inaction” on the part of Delhi Police.


The petition, which was mentioned before a bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur by senior advocate Indira Jaising, also demanded that the security measures in the court complex should be such that no person becomes a victim of violence.
