The opposition's allegations of the home ministry's complicity in the inaction of the Delhi Police during the four-day violence in northeast Delhi were taken on by the BJP's Meenakshi Lekhi. Putting up a spirited fight in the Lok Sabha as the long-pending discussion on the Delhi violence started, Ms Lekhi said, "Some judges think police shouldn't act until protests turn violent". Under the circumstances, it is difficult to gauge when a peaceful protest will turn violent, she said.
