The Supreme Court on Thursday dropped contempt proceedings against Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari for breaking the seal of a commercial establishment while observing that his actions were "painful and shocking".
A bench headed by the Justice Madan B. Lokur said it was "pained by his conduct" during the sealing exercise.
The Bharatiya Janata Party leader had drawn the court's ire when he broke the seal of a dairy in Mangolpuri area here on September 15.
