AG declines consent for contempt against Digvijaya Singh

The Attorney General K.K. Venugopal has declined to grant consent to initiate contempt proceedings against senior Congress leader and former Madhya Pradesh CM Digvijaya Singh. 

“I have given careful consideration to the two tweets. The statements made are wholly uncalled for. However, I do not believe that they merit action for criminal contempt of the Supreme Court of India. I accordingly decline consent,” said Venugopal. Digvijaya Singh posted two tweets targeting Yogi government on 15 September.

 In the first tweet he had said, “In Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath has formed SSF (Special Security Force) under which the police can raid someone’s house and arrest anyone without any warrant, and without the permission of the government, no one can even go to the court”.
