4th Justice G P Singh Memorial Lecture: Consuming chicken biryani no offence… dissent essence of democracy, says Justice Bhuyan
Referring to environmental protests and student demonstrations, he said, “People who come to voice their anguish over environmental degradation, which is a reality, are chased away as if they are criminals. Students protesting in campuses are arrested and they do not get bail for 30-40 days.” He added that students are often suspended as well, forcing them to approach courts before they can resume their education. Justice Bhuyan questioned whether courts, through restrictive bail conditions, were also discouraging dissent.
