K'taka HC bars coercive action against BJP MLC over NEET paper leak remarks

Business To Business, Bengaluru, 28th July, 2026:   The Karnataka High Court on Monday directed the state government not to take any coercive action against BJP MLC C T Ravi in connection with an FIR registered over his alleged inflammatory and derogatory remarks relating to a NEET paper leak protest.
The interim direction was issued by the single-judge bench of Justice M. Nagaprasanna while hearing a petition filed by Ravi seeking the quashing of the FIR lodged against him at the Chikkamagaluru Town Police Station.
The court granted interim protection from coercive action pending further consideration of the matter.
The case has been posted for further hearing on Friday, when the court is expected to take up Ravi's plea in greater detail.
