‘We Don’t Need Permission to Hoist National Flag’: AISA Chief Neha Bora to Delhi HC
Bora says the police notice is unlawful because hoisting the national flag needs no permission, and she seeks to stop coercive action over a Rs 10,000 bond.
- On Thursday, All India Students' Association President Neha Bora challenged a Delhi Police notice in the Delhi High Court requiring her to furnish a Rs 10,000 bond to "maintain peace."
- Police issued the notice following Bora's detention on October 16 while she headed to the Cockroach Janta Party's 'Lehra Do Tiranga' march; she was released October 17 under Delhi Police Act Section 65.
- The notice alleges she created "nuisance by shouting loudly in protest" at Mandi House and violated prohibitory orders under BNSS Section 163, though her counsel contended citizens require no permission to hoist the national flag.
- Additional Solicitor General Chetan Sharma, representing Delhi Police, objected to the petition's maintainability during Thursday's hearing, citing Bora's involvement in six prior FIRs as grounds for her credibility challenge.
- Justice Subramonium Prasad reserved the verdict for Friday, noting the petitioner's concern about being branded "bad" while stressing that legal procedures must satisfy constitutional requirements under Article 21.
