The Supreme Court said there cannot be a "universal policy" on right to protest and possible curbs as the situation may vary from case to case.
A bench consisting of justices SK Kaul, Aniruddha Bose, and Krishna Murari held that while listening to a batch of petitions against the anti-CAA protests in December.
It stated that, the right to protest has to be balanced against other public rights such as the right to mobility.
