Social boycott has no place in civilised society: Calcutta HC

IndiaTimes Sunday, 31 December 2023
There is no place for social boycott of a citizen in a civilized society, the Calcutta high court said Wednesday while addressing a case where a man faced ostracism for reporting illegal temple construction in front of his property in the Arambag area of Bengal's Hooghly. "Any social boycott of a citizen or his family member has to be dealt with strictly by the administration. This has no place in a civilised society," said Justice Jay Sengupta, directing police to maintain vigilant patrols to prevent any breach of peace or violation of the civil court order in the area.
