Responding to the arguments, the defence told the court that Ravi was not a rebel without a cause. There’s a cause of environment, of agriculture and interlink between them,” he said.

there was no evidence to show that the toolkit was responsible for the riots during the farmers’ march on January 26.

Meanwhile, the Delhi High Court yesterday, hearing arguments in a plea by Disha against the “leaking” of her WhatsApp chats, allegedly by police, to the media, directed the police to abide by Home Ministry guidelines and not “rush to the press with half-baked, speculative or unconfirmed information about ongoing investigations”.
