New Delhi: A contempt petition has been filed in the Supreme Court (SC) against the Uttar Pradesh administration and police for not taking steps against the 'Dharam Sansad' which is being organised between December 17 to 21 in Ghaziabad by the Yati Narasinghanand Foundation.
The bench then asked Bhushan to send an email seeking urgent listing.
The lawyer alleged that a call was issued for the "genocide of Muslims".
The petitioners argued that the Ghaziabad District Administration and the Uttar Pradesh police have failed to act as per the directions issued by the apex court to take suo motu action against hate speeches.
They pointed out that the website and the advertisements for the 'Dharam Sansad' include hate speeches against the followers of Islam religion and incite violence against them.
