The Supreme Court has made important observations regarding restrictions imposed by the police amid protests at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. The court stressed that train services connecting Delhi should not be completely suspended and that metro stations should not be shut down. The observations underline the need to balance public order measures with the public’s right to access essential transport services.

The court also called for train and metro operations to be managed in a regulated manner so that commuters do not face unnecessary inconvenience. Rather than completely halting services, authorities should take appropriate measures to manage passenger movement and maintain transport connectivity. Further details regarding the court’s directions and the arrangements made by the authorities are awaited.
