Shivraj Chouhan wants to see ABVP men accused of stealing treated leniently. Here's why
Shivraj Singh Chouhan, the former chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, has asked Chief Justice Ravi Malimath of the Madhya Pradesh High Court to pardon two leaders of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), who are charged with stealing a judge’s vehicle.
In accordance with the anti-dacoity statute, the police detained Deputy Secretary Sukrit Sharma and Gwalior Secretary Himanshu Shrotriya of the ABVP on Monday after they allegedly stole the vehicle to take a sick individual to the hospital.
Following the denial of their bail request on Wednesday, they are still being held by the courts.

‘Holy cause’ act: Chouhan to Chief Justice
According to Chouhan’s argument in his letter to CJ Malimath, the ABVP members’ activities were “committed for a holy cause and done on humanitarian grounds for saving lives.”
He argued that they had no criminal intent when they planned to steal the car and asked him to drop the charges against them in light of their future.
On Wednesday, a special court judge dismissed the ABVP members’ request for release, citing the proper way to seek assistance: politely, not violently.

The court denied bail, citing “not justified” arguments.
“The accused, along with their other accomplices, forcefully snatched the key from the driver present in the government car parked on the porch of the railway station and committed robbery and dacoity,” stated Special Judge Sanjay Goyal in rejecting their bail application.
The petitioners countered that the conduct was performed to assist a sick individual, a claim that the court rejected as unfounded.

The ABVP stands by the acts of its members.
Sandeep Vaishnav, the secretary of the ABVP’s Madhya Pradesh section, defended Shrotriya and Sharma, saying they were attempting to assist a guy who was seriously ill and were not aware that the automobile belonged to a High Court judge.
Vaishnav stated that when the man got off a train at Gwalior station, an ambulance did not show there for twenty-five minutes.
He was taken to a hospital by the ABVP activists while in the parked automobile, but according to accounts, he passed away from heart failure.

Be aware of the occurrence
A passenger’s condition was said to be getting worse while several ABVP members were riding the Delhi-to-Gwalior train.
Vaishnav told PTI that they intervened right away and alerted their a coworkers at the Gwalior station.
The individual was subsequently taken off the ship and driven to a hospital in a car that was parked outside the station, but he passed away, he continued.
Ranjeet Singh, 68, a vice-chancellor of a private university in Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, has been identified as the deceased.
