What happened during the hearing in the Supreme Court?
During the hearing, the Supreme Court asked, 'Is this a press statement or an order? Petitioner's lawyer C.U. Singh said, 'The district administration of Uttar Pradesh is pressurizing shopkeepers to reveal their name and mobile number. No law gives the police the right to do this. Only the police has the right to check what kind of food is being served. 'The name of the shopkeeper or his owner cannot be made mandatory.'
