New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday pulled up Madhya Pradesh minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Vijay Shah for his controversial remarks on Indian Army officer Sofiya Qureshi in the wake of Operation Sindoor carried out by the Indian Armed Forces. The SC also rejected Shah’s apology over his distasteful remarks. The top court said that no sincere apology was given by the minister. The SC also constituted an SIT into the matter.
“Where is that apology? What is that apology? What kind of apology have you tendered? There is some meaning of apology! Sometimes people use docile language only to wriggle out of proceeding! And sometimes they shed crocodile tears! What kind of apology is yours?” Justice Surya Kant said, as quoted by NDTV.
Earlier on Thursday, the top court refused to stay the Madhya Pradesh High Court’s directive to initiate criminal proceedings against him.
