​Govt to tell police to act against khaps

MUMBAI: The state government told the Bombay high court on Tuesday that pending approval of the Prevention of Social Disabilities Bill, it shall issue a circular to all police stations in Maharashtra to take action under the Indian Penal Code on complaints against diktats by caste panchayats.

Advocate general Darius Khambata told a division bench of Justices SC Dharmadhikari and Gautam Patel that the circular will direct the registering of complaints under the IPC for criminal conspiracy, criminal intimidation, common intention and promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, etc, and doing acts prejudicial to maintaining harmony.

"Apart from inter-community matters, the last section will also deal with intra-community matters," he said.

Referring to the recent anti-superstition ordinance, Justice Dharmadhikari said, "People think in the name of religion while performing these acts... For decades people have suffered, but their progeny should not suffer." He said it was an irony that the bill was pending and he would convey to the home department to look into it.
