At Delhi’s Race Course Mosque, a reporter describes restricted access and alleges police mistreatment, while contrasting uncertainty over the heritage mosque with assurances reportedly given to a neighbouring temple. Court records, demolition reports and Section 163 notices reveal a larger dispute over public land, worship, press access and fair treatment.
After Delhi Police sought a ₹10,000 peace bond and the High Court allowed proceedings to continue, Neha Bora challenged whose peace the measure protects. Slogans against her outside a police station sharpen the question of equal treatment, but the legal notice and the final case remain distinct.
An Instagram post says authorities denied a Jantar Mantar protest, cancelled trains, restricted Metro access, closed shops and blocked internet so residents would blame protesters. The disruption and Supreme Court intervention are documented; the alleged plan to turn public opinion against protesters is not. The episode raises a sharper question about who bears the cost…
An Instagram post contrasts public solidarity after the 2012 Nirbhaya assault with police action against Ankita Bhandari’s family in October 2026. Both periods saw protests and policing; Ankita’s parents were detained despite the conviction of three men for her murder.

After a 2024 encroachment notice and years of court proceedings, Gujarat approved a proposal to gift 500 sq m of disputed Vadodara civic land to Yusuf Pathan and transfer another 478 sq m at a discount. His recent political realignment raises questions, but does not itself prove a quid pro quo; municipal approvals remain pending.
The 2013 ‘Snoopgate’ reports alleged that Gujarat police monitored a woman in 2009 under political direction. Her family described it as requested protection, and the Gujarat High Court later stopped an inquiry at their request. Those developments leave separate questions about surveillance powers, evidence and privacy.
The Bar Council of India briefly blocked enrolment of NALSAR’s 2026 graduates after students opposed the Chief Justice’s convocation invitation. Its reversal did not end calls for Chairman Manan Kumar Mishra’s resignation, and the Supreme Court later ordered an investigation into an alleged assault on protesting lawyers.
A May 2026 reel argues that the Modi government has reduced citizens’ ability to demand information, question power and obtain bail. RTI amendments and PM CARES raise genuine accountability questions, but the claim that bail or the right to question government has disappeared is too sweeping.
