In a freshly arising matter arising out of the Supreme Court, the Centre has approached with an application seeking permission to disband a special investigation team (SIT) in the 1984 Sikh riots. The SIT is headed by a former Delhi High Court judge S.N. Dhingra and comprised of retired IPS officer Rajdeep Singh and serving IPS officer Abhishek Dular (2006). The committee was set up by order of the Supreme Court on January 11, 2018, entrusted to supervise the further investigation in these cases, were the closure reports were already filed. However, later on, Singh cited ‘personal grounds’ to excuse him from the membership of the said SIT, and thus now the SIT has only two members.
