Supreme Court panel on Jantar Mantar violence launches portal to receive complaints

The Supreme Court's High Powered Enquiry Committee (HPEC) has launched a portal to receive complaints and representations from those affected by the violence that occurred at Jantar Mantar in Delhi and other locations outside the capital in July. The committee has prioritized matters such as the use of pellet guns, targeted violence against women protesters, and excessive violence and destruction of property.

The portal, accessible at hpec.nic.in, allows affected individuals to maintain their anonymity if desired. The HPEC's mandate covers issues outlined in Supreme Court orders from August 18 and September 10, 2026. Affected persons and stakeholders are encouraged to submit complaints, representations, or other relevant information through the portal, in person at the HPEC office in New Delhi, or by post and email.
