Umar Khalid's Bail Rejected: "Now This Is Life," He Tells Partner After SC Verdict

  • Supreme Court rejected Umar Khalid's bail plea in the 2020 Delhi violence case, citing sufficient evidence for inciting violence.
  • Khalid's partner, Banjyotsna Lahiri, shared his reaction: "Now this is life," and his happiness for others who received bail.
  • Sharjeel Imam's bail application was also rejected by the Supreme Court on similar grounds.
  • Five other accused – Gulfisha Fatima, Meeran Haider, Shifa-ur-Rehman, Mohammad Salim Khan, and Shahdab Ahmed – were granted bail.
  • The court stated that mere delay in judicial process is not a 'trump card' for bail and suggested Khalid and Imam can reapply later.

Why It Matters: Umar Khalid's bail rejected by SC; he accepts fate while others get relief in Delhi violence case.
