A bench comprising Justices S K Kaul and K M Joseph said, “Differences always arise between families but the debate is becoming something else. This is an unfortunate example.”

“People with contrary opinions can debate it. This is not the manner of debating,” the bench said while deferring the hearing after holi vacations next month. The bench also appealed to all political parties and all stakeholders to maintain calm in the city and said, “There should be healthy debate and not violence.”
