Supreme Court On Student Protests: 'Lathi-Charge Can't Be Launched Merely Because Of Agitation'

The Supreme Court on Monday made a significant oral observation while hearing petitions alleging excessive police force during recent student protests across the country.

A Bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant observed that "lathi-charge cannot be launched merely because of agitation." The remarks came as the Court took up a fresh batch of petitions, including one filed by students alleging they were assaulted during the protests.

The Court's observations come amid an ongoing debate over police action against protesters and the balance between maintaining law and order and protecting the right to peaceful protest.
