Patna (Bihar): In a video that is now going viral on Twitter, a Patna High Court Judge is seen getting furious at the prosecution and the police department for bulldozing the house of the petitioner.
Taking note of the petitioner’s plea against the bulldozing of his house by the police department, Justice Sandeep Kumar of the Patna High Court came down hard on the police department and land mafia.
Adding that the police and officials were working hand-in-glove with the land mafia, Justice Kumar added “Tamasha Bana Diya Hai Ke Ghar Tod Denge Kisi Ka.” (You have made a mockery that you will bulldoze anybody’s homes).
Justice Kumar in his remarks also added that the courts in the country should be shut down if the police department has the right to demolish houses at their will and disposal.
The judge after hearing the plea of the petitioner who added that the police had booked a false case against him and his family members at the behest of land mafia, said “The police is restrained from arresting the petitioner and his family.”
Justice Kumar added that he will make sure that compensation of rupees 5 lakh will be given to the people whose houses were illegally demolished from the pockets of those who are involved in this crime.
He also said that police have become agents of the land mafia in Patna.
“This business will only stop when a police officer will be sent to jail,” he said.

Patna: The Election Commission (EC) on Sunday issued a notice to Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and senior BJP leader Vijay Kumar Sinha over allegations of possessing two voter identity cards and being registered in two separate assembly constituencies.
The action follows a complaint by RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, who earlier in the day alleged that Sinha was a registered voter in both Lakhisarai and Bankipur assembly constituencies, located in different districts. Speaking to reporters, Yadav questioned what steps had been taken against Sinha.
According to officials, the notice, issued by the Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) for Bankipur constituency, seeks an explanation from Sinha by August 14 on why he holds two voter IDs.
The controversy coincided with a protest by opposition MPs, including Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi, and Sharad Pawar, who marched from Parliament House towards the EC headquarters in New Delhi against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls in Bihar. The protestors, wearing white caps marked with a red cross over the words “SIR” and “vote chori,” were stopped by police near Transport Bhawan.
