Supreme Court Decision
The Supreme Court of India's recent ruling denied bail to Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam, who have been in jail for five years without trial due to their involvement in the 2020 Delhi Riots. Proponents of the decision argue it is necessary for national security, while critics highlight the prolonged detention as a violation of personal liberty.
