New Delhi: The Supreme Court today refused to entertain a plea seeking the National Investigation Agency's probe into the Congress "Toolkit" case and suspension of the Congress party for indulging in anti-national acts and playing with the lives of people if the charges were proven to be true.
Calling the toolkit a piece of political propaganda, the bench comprising of Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice MR Shah asked the petitioner, Advocate Shashank Shekhar Jha, how a petition under Article 32 could be entertained by the court against political propaganda?
"Mr Shashank Jha if you don't like the toolkit then you ignore the toolkit. This is a propaganda shaft by a political party and you should ignore it," said Justice Chandrachud.
Adv Jha had cited an example of Singapore which had banned everything to which Justice Chandrachud said that "India is a democracy".
