Supreme Court Takes Strong Action on Assaults Against Doctors by Maharashtra Politicians
The Supreme Court of India has taken a firm stance against assaults on doctors by politicians in Maharashtra, particularly focusing on Shiv Sena corporator Ramesh Sukrya Mhatre, accused of attacking medical staff in Thane. The court emphasized that those involved in such attacks should not be allowed to roam freely and must be taken into custody. Mhatre withdrew his bail plea amid the court's strong remarks. The court also noted a recent similar incident in Palghar involving Shiv Sena members and issued notices on the state government's appeal to cancel bail granted to Mhatre and others, aiming to send a deterrent message against such violence.
