The Supreme Court underscored that peaceful protest is a fundamental right while hearing petitions related to action against student protesters. The court stressed preservation of evidence, protection of personal data, and relief for detained protesters, with the next hearing scheduled for Monday.

The Supreme Court emphasized that peaceful protests are constitutionally protected, asserting that mere agitation does not warrant police action like lathi-charges.

Supreme Court sets July 28 hearing on police actions during student protests, emphasizing the right to peaceful demonstration.
