She has been in jail for over two years in Bhima Koregaon case
The National Investigation Agency has appealed to the Supreme Court against , who was arrested and has been in jail for over two years in the Bhima Koregaon case.
The Bombay High Court had upheld Ms. Bhardwaj’s indefeasible right to personal liberty. It said the guarantee of personal liberty under Article 21 (right to life) of the Constitution cannot be thwarted on technical grounds that her plea for default bail was premature. That would be a “too technical and formalistic view of the matter”.
The NIA court did not have the jurisdiction to extend the period of detention beyond the stipulated 90 days, the High Court said in its bail order on December 1.

The heat of the recently concluded local body elections spilled over into the first meeting of the newly elected council of the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation, as the Opposition Left Democratic Front (LDF) questioned the propriety of the 20 councillors to whom the Kerala High Court had issued a notice regarding their oaths, participating in the council.
