Yesterday, On 16th July, The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, issued a notice to the Defence Ministry in response to Nagaland’s plea to prosecute 30 Army personnel involved in the Mon killings. This comes after the Central government denied prosecution sanction under the Armed Forces Special Powers Act. The incident, which sparked public outcry, occurred during a flawed military operation in December 2021.
