The Delhi High Court is set to hear a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) challenging the internet shutdown imposed around Jantar Mantar, where students and activists have been protesting over alleged examination irregularities. The petition argues that suspending internet services violates citizens' fundamental rights, restricts peaceful protest, and disrupts communication, education, and emergency services. The case comes amid continuing demonstrations demanding accountability and education reforms. The court's decision could have significant implications for the balance between maintaining public order and protecting constitutional rights, including freedom of speech, expression, and peaceful assembly.
