Neha Bora gets till Oct 29 to respond to peace bond

On October 17, AISA president Neha Bora faced a Delhi police notice, requiring her to sign a Rs 10,000 peace bond with one surety. Upon appearing before the special executive magistrate at Mandir Marg Police Station on Saturday, the magistrate instructed her counsel to provide all material suggesting a potential breach of peace.

Bora's defense stated they would review the evidence before the October 29 response deadline. The Delhi High Court dismissed Bora's challenge to the notice but emphasized the need for transparency, ensuring the detained individual understands the allegations and has a fair chance to reply. Bora maintained her stance against signing the bond, arguing that the proceedings were an attempt to suppress peaceful dissent.

She also contended that hoisting the national flag without permission did not constitute a breach of peace.
