The Supreme Court on Monday called for evolving a broad mechanism to deal with violence against women in strife-torn Manipur and asked how many FIRs have been registered in such incidents in the state since May.
While hearing a plea on the parading incident, Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud said what happened in Manipur can not be justified by pointing out to other states where crimes against women are happening.
He further said that we as in country are dealing with something which is of unprecedented nature.
Taking cognisance of the video, a bench headed by the chief justice of India directed the Centre and the Manipur government to take immediate remedial, rehabilitative and preventive steps and apprise it of the action taken.
