BJP MP Meenakshi Lekhi on Wednesday hit back at the Opposition in Lok Sabha after it questioned the timing of transfer of Delhi High Court judge S Muralidhar, saying IB reports of "some people" should be made public to clear the air.

Lekhi, who was participating in a discussion on Delhi riots, however, did not name anyone.

"Some judges, I won't name, some judges believe that unless a protest is violent, police will not take action. Who will decide when will the protest become violent.. the judges they have named.... They don't know that government cannot transfer without recommendation... transfer was not done, it had already happened.

"I want to say that the IB (Intelligence Bureau) reports about some people should be made public. Everyone will understand who was transferred and for what reason," she said
