BR Gavai On IIT Bombay Row: 'Professors Should Not Be Scared Of Going To College'
In an exclusive conversation with NDTV, former Chief Justice of India Justice BR Gavai responds to concerns among IIT Bombay professors about workplace interactions and the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Justice Gavai says the law should not create a fear among professors of going to class, while stressing the need to maintain social harmony. On the question of arrest after an FIR under the SC/ST Act, he declines to comment on the individual case, saying any such observation could prejudice the rights of the accused or the victim.
