Attacking the BJP-led Modi government over the issue, Congress and opposition parties have said that Sinha’s action would not only support and encourage the perpetrators, but will also give a ‘guarantee’ that they can continue with this type of incidents. Although, Sinha has stated that he has full faith in judiciary and condemns all acts of violence and any type of vigilantism.

Soon after the video came out in social media, where Sinha was seen garlanding the lynching convicts after they came out of prison on bail last week in Hazaribagh, there were uproar in the political arena. Clearing his stance, he had said, “The rule of law is supreme in our constitutional democracy. Any unlawful acts, particularly, those that violate the rights of any citizen, should be punished with the full force of the law.”

Not only the politicians, even bureaucrats have demanded that Sinha be sacked for felicitating the eight convicts. Former Mumbai police commissioner Julio Ribeiro, former chief information commissioner Wajahat Habibullah and 41 other retired bureaucrats share the same opinion, reports Hindustan Times.
