The Supreme Court Monday took up the issue of an infant dying on returning home from Shaheen Bagh where his parents had taken him along to the ongoing protests against the Citizen Amendment Act (CAA). A bench headed by Chief Justice S A Bobde took a strong exception to some of the lawyers opposing the court's taking suo motu (on its own) cognisance of the matter. "Can a 4-month-old child be taking part in such protests," the bench asked women lawyers appearing in the matter. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said it was not correct that minors like the 4-month infant should be taken to the protest site.
