Delhi Court Grants Bail to 17 Students Arrested in Protest Against CEC Gyanesh KumarPreviousNext

A Delhi court granted bail to 17 students arrested during protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, citing their young age and lack of habitual offending. The court acknowledged serious allegations including assault on police officers and damage to public property but emphasized the right to peaceful protest does not justify violence. Bail conditions include personal bonds, restrictions on influencing witnesses, and regular court appearances. Authorities were directed to provide medical care to injured detainees.
