PIL filed in Delhi HC seeking action against suspended ACP over alleged AK-47 threat to lawyers

What's behind this

ACP Manasvi Vashistha was suspended by the Ministry of Home Affairs a day after he led a protest against transfer orders outside the Delhi Police headquarters, joining around 100 participants. The protest followed a clash with lawyers and heightened tension after a Shahdara police station incident. The Delhi bar body has demanded criminal action and an independent, time‑bound inquiry into his remarks against lawyers. Officials said the suspension was for a violation of discipline.
