Supreme Court to hear a plea that de-notifying Jantar Mantar pushes dissent ‘out of sight, out of mind’
India's Supreme Court has agreed to hear a petition challenging the government's decision to remove Jantar Mantar's status as a protest site. The petition argues that de‑notifying the area will marginalize dissent by moving demonstrations away from public view and without established guidelines for alternative locations, the impact of protests could be significantly effectively reduced.
