While the order aims to ensure fairness, it raises concerns about judicial overreach and undermines the operational independence of state police forces. By preemptively assuming that police actions were excessive, the court may be setting a precedent that discourages lawful enforcement. The release of all minors and those without criminal records, without case-by-case assessment, could risk releasing actual offenders. Moreover, an independent probe adds bureaucratic layers that delay justice and consume resources. Some argue that internal police mechanisms and state oversight bodies are sufficient to address grievances. The order also shifts focus from the root cause of the protests—exam irregularities—to police conduct, potentially leaving the original grievance unaddressed. This approach may strain the federal balance between the judiciary and state governments.
