(Information Technology) student at Sinhagad Academy of Engineering, had posted on Instagram about the ongoing conflict between Bharat and Pakistan on May 7, 2025. Though she deleted the post within two hours and publicly tendered an apology expressing remorse, an FIR was registered against her on May 9, 2025, by a police constable on patrolling duty. The charges invoked were 152, 196, 197, 299, 352 and 353 of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS), on the alleged ground that the post could incite communal disharmony and disrupt public peace.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:18.7px\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:18.67px\">The bench was considering a petition challenging her rustication from the institution and a criminal application seeking release and quashing of FIR.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:18.7px\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:18.67px\">At the outset the bench held that there was no dispute in regards to the remorse of the Petitioner for her actions as within two hours of the post an apology was rendered thus termed the subsequent arrest as &quot;absolutely shocking.&quot; and found no reason for her to be in custody.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:18.7px\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:18.67px\"><span style=\"font-family:'TimesNewRomanPS-BoldItalicMT'\"><strong><em>&ldquo;According to us, it is thus shocking that after she deleted the post, the FIR was lodged against her on 9 th May 2025.

It was highlighted to the court by the counsel appearing for the institution that since the University conducts the exams, the institution will not be able to take that decision independently and also pointed out that the University is not a Party Respondent, thus in this regard the bench was not able pass any direction. However, the Petitioner was given the liberty to amend the Petition and seek appropriate relief or adopt any other procedure in regards to the same.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:18.7px\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:18.67px\">On the issue of rustication, the Court held that the disciplinary action taken by the institution appeared to be both arbitrary and premature.
