Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K.T. Rama Rao has strongly condemned the recent attempted attack on Chief Justice of India, B.R. Gavai, calling it a shocking sign of rising intolerance in the country.
“The intolerance in our country has reached its highest levels; an outrageous sign of this was witnessed yesterday in the Supreme Court when CJI Gavai was attacked. I strongly and unequivocally condemn the attempt,” Rama Rao wrote on X. He added, “This shameful assault on judicial dignity is not just an attack on an individual but on the institution itself. No disagreement, even on sensitive issues like faith, justifies violence. Such behavior threatens the foundation of democracy itself.”
Former IPS officer and BRS leader R.S. Praveen Kumar also condemned the attack, stating, “An attack on the Hon’ble Chief Justice of India in open court by an alleged advocate is utterly condemnable. If this can happen to the Chief Justice in broad daylight, imagine the risk to ordinary citizens. This reflects a deeper malaise where vulnerable citizens are being influenced by retrogressive and fundamentalist forces. It is crucial that internal security agencies like IB, NIA, CBI, and state intelligence maintain strict vigilance against such radicalisation to protect our democratic institutions.”
Other BRS leaders, including former minister Harish Rao and Telangana Jagruthi leader K. Kavitha, echoed the condemnation. Kavitha remarked, “An assault on the head of our judiciary is an attack on the very foundation of our democracy. Such actions have no place in a democratic society.”
The leaders have demanded swift action to bring the perpetrators to justice and emphasized the need to safeguard democratic institutions from such threats.
