Briefing the media here, the Home Minister P.Chidambaram said, there were some areas of the judgment which were to be reflected upon carefully.

The Apex Court had termed as unconstitutional the practice of deploying Special Police Officers in campaigns like Salwa Judum launched by the Chhattisgarh government to fight Maoists. The Court had asked for a compliance report from the Union government and the Chhattisgarh government within a period of six weeks.

On the issue of infiltration in Jammu and Kashmir, Mr Chidambaram said, though it has come down in the first six months, but the government is maintaining a close vigil on it.
