The Delhi High Court allows activist Natasha Narwal, who is out on bail in the 2020 Delhi riots conspiracy case, to travel to the United Kingdom for academic purposes. Both the Mint and the Hindu report that the permission is subject to conditions requiring her to return to India and comply with specific legal restrictions.
Narwal, a founding member of Pinjra Tod, is directed not to pursue asylum. The court also requires her to surrender her passport within 48 hours of returning to India. While the outlets broadly agree on the decision and the conditions, they focus on different phrasing around the purpose of the trip—describing it as academic work or an academic conference—without adding differing legal outcomes.
