The death of 26-year-old Bharat Bhushan Tiwari in a Bihar police encounter has sparked controversy and demands for accountability. A PIL filed before the Supreme Court seeks an independent probe, while the Bihar government has initiated a judicial inquiry into the incident.
Retired Supreme Court judge Justice Abhay S Oka said he would have declined invitations from Adhivakta Parishad as a sitting judge due to perceived political leanings. He highlighted the need for strict judicial neutrality and urged both sitting and retired judges to maintain dignity and public trust in the legal system.
