The Madras High Court ruled that the Bhagavad Gita cannot be treated as a religious text under the FCRA, setting aside the Union Home Ministry’s denial of registration to a trust teaching Vedanta, Yoga, and Indian philosophy.
Today,22nd April, The Delhi High Court requested the CBI’s response to activist Harsh Mander’s plea seeking to quash an FIR alleging FCRA violations. The court has asked for a status report and assured that Mander won’t be arrested for now. The plea argues that the FIR lacks a cognizable offence and warns of ongoing harassment.
