NEET-UG protests: Supreme Court questions U.P. Magistrate’s notice to student despite SC bar
India’s Supreme Court has intervened after a Uttar Pradesh magistrate issued a notice to student activist Akshat Tripathi, demanding he justify why a personal bond of five million rupees should not be imposed. The notice alleges Tripathi spread anti‑government propaganda and encouraged university students to join Jantar Mantar demonstrations, prompting the court to question the magistrate’s authority.
