The Maharashtra government has decided to withdraw cases registered against youths during CJP-backed protests demanding former Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation. CM Devendra Fadnavis directed the Home Department to begin the process after court approval. The move comes as the Supreme Court examines allegations of police excesses and directs preservation of protest evidence.
In a significant relief for students who took part in recent protests, the Maharashtra government has decided to withdraw cases registered against youths during demonstrations held in support of the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) demand for former Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday directed the Home Department to issue orders for the withdrawal of the cases. The state government clarified that the process would be carried out after obtaining the necessary permission from the respective courts, as required under law.
Relief for Protesters, But Questions Remain
The announcement comes a day after the Bihar government made a similar decision, saying it would withdraw all cases registered before 6 pm on July 26 and release those arrested during a statewide crackdown on demonstrators who participated in the CJP-backed agitation.
