Supreme Court and Delhi Authorities Address Legal and Regulatory Aspects of Protests
The Supreme Court emphasized that peaceful protesters in Delhi cannot be detained without following the legal 'procedure established by law,' highlighting constitutional protections under Article 21. The police's preventive measures, including detentions and restrictions during protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, raise questions about balancing public order and the right to assemble. With Jantar Mantar denotified as a protest site, Delhi authorities have designated three new venues, requiring advance permission and subject to security assessments and possible revocation.
