The Calcutta High Court dismissed a PIL against the BJP’s Bengal Bandh, citing the petitioner’s prior prohibition from filing PILs. The BJP had called for the bandh in response to a doctor’s rape and murder, sparking student protests. The PIL argued that such bandhs disrupt public life and infringe on citizens’ rights.
