Grants bail, says such 'radical' reactions by state will only radicalise young people
THE Bombay High Court on Tuesday ordered the immediate release of a 19-year-old engineering student arrested for sharing an Instagram post on Operation Sindoor and slammed the Maharashtra government and state police for their 'radical reaction' to a critical comment.
While granting bail, a bench of justices Gauri Godse and Somasekhar Sundaresan said it was "absolutely shocking" that the student was treated like a hardcore criminal even after she apologised and deleted the social media post.
