The Union government informed the Supreme Court on Monday that it is committed to not pursuing FIRs against students involved in recent protests, signaling a de-escalation strategy.
This move follows similar actions by the Tamil Nadu government, which recently announced the withdrawal of cases registered against students during anti-NEET demonstrations.
The legal development provides relief to thousands of students, though questions remain regarding the procedural implementation of withdrawing FIRs across different state jurisdictions.
