Three applicants were arrested and charged with sedition and other offenses for allegedly raising pro-Pakistan slogans after an India-Pakistan match and making inflammatory social media posts. Their lawyers argued they were falsely accused due to student rivalries and that the applicants truly represented the composite culture of India. The judge granted bail noting the prosecution's case was disputed and there were exceptional circumstances, such as the applicants being assaulted in court. Bail was granted with conditions that the applicants not interfere with evidence or witnesses.
