Ajeet Bharti Faces Arrest Heat As Delhi HC Rejects Bail In Chandrashekhar Azad Case

The Delhi High Court has denied anticipatory bail to YouTuber and reservation-reform activist Ajeet Bharti in an SC/ST Act case over his remarks concerning Nagina MP Chandrashekhar Azad. The court held that offences under Sections 3(1)(r) and 3(1)(s) were prima facie made out and that the statutory bar on anticipatory bail applied. Bharti has maintained that he was responding to an abusive comment involving his sister and denied caste bias. The case stems from an August 22 livestream, while the detailed High Court order is awaited.
