Supreme Court today refused to accord urgent hearing on a PIL seeking reforms in police force across the country, saying nobody listens to the court orders. A bench comprising Chief Justice JS Khehar and Justices DY Chandrachud and SK Kaul said police reforms are going on and on and nobody listens to the apex court orders.
The court’s order came when petitioner Ashwini Kumar Upadhya, lawyer and Delhi BJP spokesperson, insisted on an urgent hearing. Upadhya, in his plea, has sought directions to states and the Centre to implement massive reforms in the police force including a fixed tenure for senior officers.
