"Issue notice to all the respondents. They are directed to file their reply on July 21," it said.
Earlier, the Court had also issued notice for July 21 to the UP government and the accused on a plea filed by the victims of the massacre and NHRC which sought ordering of a further probe into the matter.
The UP government had approached the High Court last week against the order in which the policemen were held not guilty of the charges of murder, attempt to murder, tampering with evidence and conspiracy in the massacre case in which 42 people were killed in Meerut city.
The government, in its appeal, said that there are "lapses" in the trial court's findings.
On March 21, a trial court gave the benefit of doubt and acquitted 16 ex-Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) personnel accused of killing 42 people in Meerut, saying lack of evidence failed to establish their identification in the case.
Those acquitted in the case were Suresh Chand Sharma, Niranjan Lal, Kamal Singh, Budhi Singh, Basant Ballab, Kunwar Pal Singh, Budha Singh, Rambir Singh, Leela Dhar, Hambir Singh, Mokam Singh, Shami Ullaha, Sarwan Kumar, Jaipal Singh, Mahesh Prasad and Ram Dhayan.
