DU Protest Ban Challenged in Delhi HC: Student Files PIL Against 'Blanket Prohibition'

• A Campus Law Centre student challenged Delhi University's month-long ban on public meetings, protests, and demonstrations.
• The plea argues the ban, issued by the DU Proctor, is arbitrary, vague, disproportionate, and violates fundamental rights.
• The student, Uday Bhadoriya, stated the ban was implemented without consulting student or teacher unions, or academic bodies.
• The petition highlights that DU colleges are cancelling or postponing events and annual fests due to the prohibition.
• Delhi Police has been made a party to the proceedings, with the matter listed for further hearing in March.
