Part III Samvidhaan Series Volume: II

Peaceful protests have historically been pivotal in our country, sparking significant public debate in recent years regarding the limitations placed on the right to protest. This report aims to critically examine the role of the Supreme Court and High Courts in defining this right and assessing the legitimacy of imposed restrictions. It reviews 18 landmark decisions by the Supreme Court through its history, and 42 High Court rulings from the past two decades.

Part III Samvidhaan Series Volume: I

The report looks at Criminal Contempt and particularly the way it affects freedom of speech and expression, and efforts to ensure judicial accountability. By laying out the law and procedure on criminal contempt in India and judicial interpretation, this report attempts to explore the scope of criminal contempt, parameters devised by courts for determining a speech as contemptuous and the application of the law by the judiciary.
