Incident Overview
The three-member Judicial Inquiry Commission, led by former Supreme Court judge B.S. Chauhan and formed by the Home Ministry on October 17, investigates the September 24 clashes in Leh. Security forces faced protesters seeking statehood and Sixth Schedule status for Ladakh, resulting in four civilian deaths—including a 1999 Kargil veteran—and 90 injuries.
Extension Details
The panel granted a 10-day extension beyond the original November 28 deadline following a November 27 plea from the Leh Apex Body for more time to gather statements. Commission judicial secretary Mohan Singh Parihar, a retired district judge, noted the request was reviewed virtually by Justice Chauhan.
The original deadline for filing statements was set to expire on November 28. The plea was placed before Justice Dr B S Chauhan, former Judge of the Supreme Court of India and head of the Judicial Inquiry Commission, who considered the matter virtually.
Leh Apex Body
