The Supreme Court on Friday came down heavily on suspended BJP leader Nupur Sharma for her comments on Prophet Mohammad, saying that the remarks were disturbing and ‘smack of arrogance’.

Referring to her apology for the Prophet remarks, the apex court also said that it was too late and her comment led to unfortunate incidents.

“These people don’t have respect for other religions,” the court said on the suspended BJP leader’s plea to club FIRs against her for Prophet remarks.

“Remark against Prophet were made either for cheap publicity, political agenda or for some nefarious activities,” it said further.

The court also refused to entertain her plea to club FIRs in various states for her remark and allowed her to withdraw the petition.

“What has Delhi police done? Don’t make us open our mouth? What was the TV debate for? Only fan an agenda? Why did they choose a sub judice topic?,” said Justice Surya Kant.

“There must be a red carpet for you there,” the apex court bench remarked when Sharma’s lawyer informed it that she is joining the investigation and not running away.
