He primarily contended that the protest did not in fact oppose India&rsquo;s foreign policy, but even if it did, citizens nonetheless have a constitutionally protected right to protest.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\"><span style=\"background-color:#ffffff\">The bench expressed strong skepticism over the petition and urged the party to prioritize pressing <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\"><span style=\"background-color:#ffffff\"><strong>local civic issues <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\"><span style=\"background-color:#ffffff\">that are genuinely affecting the common man rather than these conflicts, which have no concern with the nation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:14pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\"><span style=\"background-color:#ffffff\"><strong><em>&ldquo;You are an organisation registered in India.
