The Supreme Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by Facebook India Managing Director Ajit Mohan, seeking to quash summons issued to him by the Peace and Harmony Committee of the Delhi Assembly. Mohan was summoned by the panel in connection with an inquiry into the February 2020 Delhi riots. However, the SC maintained that the panel cannot act as a prosecuting agency.
