Top Court To Rule On Shaheen Bagh, "Right To Indefinite Protest" Today

The Supreme Court is set to deliver its verdict today on a batch of petitions against the anti-citizenship law protests that swept Delhi's Shaheen Bagh earlier this year, with the focus on balancing individuals' right to protest against inconvenience caused to other people. In what could be a hugely influential ruling, the top court will decide if there can be "an indefinite period of protests in a common area (that) creates inconvenience for others", or if there need to be limitations on the length and intensity of the protest. The court has already noted that there cannot be a "universal policy" since circumstances may "vary" from case-to-case.
