The Deputy Chief Minister has explicitly instructed police officials not to dilute serious assault cases by registering them under minor or bailable sections. Instead, they have been directed to invoke Section 307 (Attempt to Murder) of the Indian Penal Code (or relevant stringent provisions under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita - BNS) in severe cases of physical assault.
"Register cases under Section 307. The police action must be so decisive that no one ever dares to repeat such an act in the state," DCM Shinde stated during his address to senior law enforcement officials.
