The Supreme Court of India ruled that the fundamental right to travel abroad under Article 21 must be balanced with the victim's right to a speedy trial. The Court set aside the Telangana High Court's permission for businessman Guniganti Ravinder Rao, accused in a decade-old criminal case, to travel to the U.S. for medical treatment. The bench emphasized that no fundamental right is absolute and reasonable restrictions can be imposed to protect societal interests and ensure effective criminal justice.
