💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court has expressed concern over the "complete breakdown of rule of law" in Uttar Pradesh, after discovering FIRs filed by the state police in civil cases. The court has asked the state's DGP and an SHO to explain why criminal law was invoked in a civil dispute. The court was dismayed that civil disputes were being converted into criminal cases, and warned that this practice is unacceptable.
