It is the HRF’s opinion that the Prime Minister’s speech constitutes a blatant violation of the Representation of the People Act and the Model Code of Conduct. They are clearly intended to incite hate and violence. We urge you to investigate the hate speech expeditiously (the links are given below) and to also initiate appropriate action.
There is no justifiable reason for the lenient approach the court took in deciding the sentence. The accused, ten in number, have managed to prolong the case for 28 years owing to the social, economic and political clout they hold. Their caste background played the key role in ensuring the support of all the political parties in the state. We demand that the State file an appeal in the High Court for increasing the duration of the punishment. If the victims decide to file a private appeal, the HRF will ensure all the cooperation required.
