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.

No comments on Race Course Mosque: Police restrictions, demolition fears and unequal assurances amid Delhi evictions
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…

As Delhi protesters Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka remain in preventive custody, the Allahabad High Court has stayed murder convict Nandlal Rai’s conviction and sentence pending appeal. The contrasting orders raise serious questions about proportionality and equal treatment, but do not prove a political deal.
A statement shared by Kunal Kamra on 15 October 2026 disputes the portrayal of Umar Khalid as a terrorist, compares his treatment with Kapil Mishra’s and questions six years of detention without trial. Court records show a serious wider-conspiracy prosecution, repeated bail refusals and an unresolved question about liberty before conviction.
