New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday refused to entertain a PIL seeking direction to appoint a five-member expert committee under the supervision of a retired Top Court judge to enquire into the Hathras stampede incident where more than 120 people were killed on July 2.
"Everything does not have to come in a PIL under Article 32; you file in the High Court. The idea of all this is to make a sort of big deal about incidents which take place. Obviously (they are) very disturbing incidents. High Courts are robust Courts, they are meant to deal with these kinds of matters," Chief Justice DY Chandrachud told the petitioner Advocate Vishal Tiwari.
The Bench of CJI DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, asked the petitioner to approach the concerned High Court. (with Agency inputs)
