Narain Singh & Ors vs State Of Haryana

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 304 Part II IPC, stating that while the right of private defense was invoked, Narain Singh exceeded this right by using a firearm against unarmed individuals. The Court noted that the High Court's reduction of the conviction from Section 302 IPC to Section 304 IPC was justified, as the circumstances indicated a lack of premeditation. The appellants were sentenced to undergo imprisonment for a term of ten years, with the conviction under Section 323 IPC being maintained.
