Delhi Court Cancels Warrant Against Student Leader Aishe Ghosh
A student leader named Aishe Ghosh was accused of protesting outside a building in Delhi in 2021.
A court gave her a warrant that could have sent her to jail.
She went to the court, and the judge cancelled the warrant and fined her a small amount.
Some people say the police tried to arrest her at a political party office, which they think was unfair.
Others say the police were just doing their job.
The case will be heard again in November.
Delhi court cancelled the non‑bailable warrant against student leader Aishe Ghosh in a 2021 protest case.
The warrant was issued after a protest outside Bangla Bhavan; Ghosh was booked under IPC sections for disobedience and trespass.
The court stayed the warrant after Ghosh appeared in person and imposed a Rs 1,000 fine.
The case is linked to alleged police intrusion at the CPI‑M headquarters, which the party said was a “witch hunt.”
Union Minister JP Nadda defended the police action, citing past arrests of student activists during the Emergency.
