Akhlaq Lynching Debate: BJP Defends Plea To Drop Charges; Analysts Question 'Social Harmony' Logic

A debate ensues over the Uttar Pradesh government’s application to withdraw the case against the 19 accused in the Dadri lynching of Mohammad Akhlaq, a decade after the incident. The discussion features BJP National Spokesperson Anila Singh, Political Analyst Tehseen Poonawala, and Advocate Swati Khanna, who deliberate on the state’s reasons for the withdrawal, including the restoration of social harmony. Tehseen Poonawala stated, ‘To ensure communal harmony, the government has to ensure crime doesn’t take place and to ensure crime doesn’t take place, those who are accused of perpetrating a horrific barbaric crime should be punished’. The panelists also clash over the investigation’s integrity and the legal and moral implications of dropping charges in a mob lynching case.
