The Supreme Court of India criticised the Gujarat government on Monday for granting remission to the 11 convicts in the Bilkis Bano gangrape case. Despite being sentenced to life imprisonment, the Gujarat government released them in 2022 under its remission policy.

Furthermore, the apex court has ruled that the released convicts must surrender before the authorities within two weeks.
