The Delhi Sub-Divisional Executive Magistrate Court granted bail to CJP chief Abhijeet Dipke on the condition that he furnishes a personal bond of Rs 50,000 and complies with Sections 126 and 170 of the BNSS, which requires him to maintain peace for one year.
The Delhi Police detained Abhijeet Dipke because Connaught Place was not an authorized protest venue, the New Delhi Municipal Council had not granted permission for the rally, and gathering crowds violated prohibitory orders issued under Section 163 of the BNSS.
Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka were sent to five days of judicial custody for secretly entering Jantar Mantar and hoisting the national flag on October 13, which occurred after Jantar Mantar was de-notified as a protest site.
