"Pronounced Guilty By Seekers Of TRPs": Activist Disha Ravi Hits Back

Twenty-two-year-old climate activist Disha Ravi, whose arrest last month earned the Delhi Police one of its most embarrassing judicial rebukes in recent times and triggered an international outcry about the crackdown on dissent in India, released her first statement on Saturday. Picked up by the police late in the night on February 13 from her Bengaluru home in connection with an online document that canvassed support for the farmers' protest, she was granted bail 10 days later by a Delhi court that shamed the cops for their "scanty and sketchy evidence".
