New Delhi: The Uttar Pradesh government on Wednesday opposed a plea for a CBI probe into the Muzaffarnagar riots, and told the Supreme Court that it did everything to contain the violence that broke out in September 2013.

On an intervention by counsel Colin Gonsalves, appearing for one of the petitioners, the court asked Lalit to explain why there were differences in the grant of compensation. 

Gonsalves told the court that while the family of a news channel correspondent who was killed during the riots was given Rs 15 lakh compensation, other victims were given Rs 10 lakh only.
