Delhi High Court Quashes FIR Against SSC Aspirant Over Protest Participation
The Delhi High Court quashed an FIR against a Staff Selection Commission aspirant who participated in a 2025 protest at Ramlila Maidan over alleged SSC exam irregularities. The court ruled that mere presence at the demonstration does not prove a common intention to disobey police orders or obstruct officers, citing lack of specific evidence against the petitioner. The FIR had alleged violation of prohibitory orders and scuffles with police, but the court found no direct criminal conduct attributed to the individual.
