Delhi HC rejects Neha Bora's plea, directs her to sign peace bond, 'maintain peace'
The notice was issued after her participation in the “Lehra Do Tiranga” march on October 16.
The Delhi High Court has rejected Neha Bora's plea and instructed her to sign a peace bond and maintain peace. The decision came after Bora participated in a "Lehra Do Tiranga" march on October 16. The court dismissed the petition filed by the All India Students' Association (AISA) president challenging a Delhi Police notice for a personal bond of ₹10,000 and one surety.
The notice was issued by the police under Section 126 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), which empowers a Special Executive Magistrate (SEM) to require a person to execute such a bond if there is credible information suggesting they may breach the peace or commit an act that could cause a disturbance. Bora argued that the notice was vague and factually incorrect, and that it did not provide any material to support the allegation that she was likely to breach the peace.
The court, however, directed the SEM to ensure that Bora is provided with all relevant material to the proceedings.
