A Delhi court on Tuesday allowed <keyword id="7732951" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="climate-activist">climate activist</keyword> <keyword id="10759898" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="disha-ravi">Disha Ravi</keyword>'s application seeking access to her lawyer, talktime with family during the police custody, warm clothes, books and home-cooked food. The 21-year-old activist was arrested from Bengaluru on Saturday in connection with allegedly editing and sharing a '<keyword id="416078" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="toolkit">toolkit</keyword>' on social media related to the farmers' protest and was sent to five days police custody the next day. Besides warm clothes, meet with parents for 15 minutes and access to lawyer for 30 minutes, Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Pankaj Sharma has also allowed her access to the First Information Report (FIR) in the 'toolkit' case, the remand application and arrest memo. The Delhi Police's Cyber Cell had lodged an FIR against "pro-Khalistan" creators of the "toolkit" for waging a "social, cultural and economic war against the government of India". On Sunday, the Delhi Police took to Twitter to elaborate on the case. It wrote, "Disha Ravi, arrested by Delhi Police, is an Editor of the Toolkit Google Doc and key conspirator in document's formulation and dissemination." She started the WhatsApp Group and collaborated with others to make the Toolkit document, the police said, adding that she worked closely with them to draft it. "In this process, they all collaborated with pro Khalistani Poetic Justice Foundation to spread disaffection against the Indian State. She was the one who shared the Toolkit Doc with <keyword id="7425525" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Greta-Thunberg">Greta Thunberg</keyword>," the police wrote on Twitter. After the arrest, the Delhi Police Special Cell procured five-day custody of 21-year-old climate activist from the court to identify Pro-Khalistani Group - Poetic Justice Foundation and its active members, and to recover the deleted WhatsApp Group.

Arrested climate activist Disha Ravi allowed access to lawyer, parents, warm clothes, books and home-cooked food

New Delhi, <keyword id="10759898" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="disha-ravi">Disha Ravi</keyword> has been featured in publications across the world as a young activist voicing her strong opinions about the environmental crisis in India. However, the 21-year-old <keyword id="7732951" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="climate-activist">climate activist</keyword> from Soladevanahalli area of <keyword id="6354321" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bengaluru">Bengaluru</keyword> was arrested by <keyword id="6358992" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Delhi-Police">Delhi Police</keyword>'s Special Cell on Saturday for her <keyword id="2326926" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="alleged-role">alleged role</keyword> in the infamous "<keyword id="416078" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="toolkit">toolkit</keyword>" which, according to police, was behind the January 26 violence in the capital. Graduating from Mount Carmel College in Bengaluru, she has been regularly writing columns and articles in leading news portals on climate action and is a familiar name in important climate forums frequented by youth activists across the globe. Disha describes herself as co-founder of Fridays For Future, India. In an interview to Auto Report Africa in 2020, she is quoted as saying: "My motivation to join climate activism came from seeing my grandparents, who are farmers, struggle with the effects of the climate crisis. At the time, I wasn't aware that what they were experiencing was the climate crisis because climate education is non-existent where I'm from. Only when I did my research, did I find out about it." However, Disha's role came under the lens of the Delhi Police after Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg tweeted a toolkit document which the police say had led to the January 26 violence in New Delhi. Though the Delhi Police did not name Thunberg in the FIR, it went ahead to register the case against the authors of the toolkit. The police later described Disha Ravi as key conspirator in the document's formulation and dissemination and said that she started a <keyword id="6407380" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="whatsapp-group">WhatsApp group</keyword> and collaborated to draft the document. "In this process, they all collaborated with pro-Khalistani Poetic Justice Foundation to spread disaffection against the Indian state. She was the one who shared the Toolkit doc with Greta Thunberg," said a senior police officer. The "toolkit" is a term activists use for a campaign information document. However, the Delhi Police also said that she asked Greta to remove the main document after its incriminating details accidentally leaked into the public domain. This is many times more than the two lines editing that she claims, they said. The Delhi Police had registered an FIR on February 4 on charges of sedition, criminal conspiracy and promoting hatred among groups under Sections 124-A, 120-A and 153-A of the Indian Penal Code against the "creators" of the 'toolkit', which was shared by Thunberg. After Disha Ravi has been sent to police remand for five days, sources in Delhi Police said that more arrests are likely, based on the investigation of the arrested accused.

Climate activist Disha Ravi arrested for being the 'Toolkit Editor' of India's farmers' protests

A Delhi Court on Tuesday granted <keyword id="6354905" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bail">bail</keyword> to climate activist <keyword id="10759898" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="disha-ravi">Disha Ravi</keyword> in the <keyword id="7425525" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Greta-Thunberg">Greta Thunberg</keyword> '<keyword id="416078" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="toolkit">Toolkit</keyword>' conspiracy case. Additional Sessions Judge Dharmendra Rana allowed the bail to the accused on the condition of two surety of Rs one lakh each. During the three-hour-long bail hearing on February 20, the police said that the 'Toolkit' was a sinister design to defame India and cause violence. "Poetic Justice Foundation and <keyword id="344450" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sikhs-for-Justice">Sikhs For Justice</keyword> in order to hide their involvement, used Disha Ravi as a front to carry out nefarious activity," Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju told the court, adding that these organisations are connected to the Khalistani movement. The Delhi Police further told the city court that Ravi covered her track and deleted evidence like contents of the Toolkit and a WhatsApp group, which the public prosecutor emphasized showed her "guilty mind". Ravi's counsel Advocate Siddharth Agarwal, however, claimed there is no evidence linking the Toolkit to the violence during the farmers' march on January 26. Ravi faces charges of conspiracy and sedition in the 'Toolkit' conspiracy case related to the farmers' agitation and was arrested from Bengaluru on February 13. The Delhi Police have contended that the google document tweeted by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg to back the farmers' protest and then deleted, was created by Ravi and two other activists -- Jacob and Muluk.

Delhi Police confirmed Ravi's arrest in a tweet Sunday, claiming that she had shared the document with Thunberg. Police accused Ravi and collaborators of making the document to "spread disaffection against the Indian State."Thousands of farmers in India have been protesting in New Delhi, the nation's capital, over new agricultural laws imposed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government. Farmer unions have called the three laws, which were passed by India's Parliament in September 2020, "anti-farmer laws," as they would end protections that have "for decades protected them from the vagaries of the free market," <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/15/world/asia/climate-activist-jailed-india.html">The New York Times reported</a>.The farmers' protests reached new <keyword id="6356001" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="international">international</keyword> attention when <a href="https://twitter.com/rihanna/status/1356625889602199552">Rihanna</a> shared a <a href="https://t.co/obmIlXhK9S?amp=1">CNN article</a> with her 101.8 million Twitter followers on February 2, writing, "why aren't we talking about this?! #FarmersProtest." <a href="https://t.co/obmIlXhK9S?amp=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"></a>Twitter said on February 10 that it had received "several separate blocking orders" from the Indian government to remove accounts of journalists, <keyword id="6355005" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="news">news</keyword> outlets, politicians, and political commentators who had supported the farmers' protest. The platform said it would not block those accounts, but that it had suspended 500 India-based accounts who were "engaging in clear examples of platform manipulation and spam," as <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-takes-down-accounts-india-farmers-protests-modi-pressure-2021-2">Insider's Isobel Asher Hamilton reported.</a><div type="image" title="disha ravi india farmers protests" height="575" width="766" msid="80931513" hostid="261"></div>Delhi Police claimed that the document was a call to "wage economic, social, cultural and regional war against India."But the document's guidance only includes using certain hashtags on social media, contacting local representatives, signing petitions, and organizing or participating in the protests. "This is not just about one country and its oppressed peoples, it's about common people across the world having the opportunity to be self-sufficient, feel secure about providing for their families, and live well," the document reads. Several Indian politicians also denounced Ravi's arrest. Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi, called the arrest an "unprecedented attack on Democracy" in a Sunday tweet. "Supporting our farmers is not a crime," he said. Jairam Ramesh, a member of the Parliament of India, said he had "full solidarity" with Ravi. "This is unwarranted harassment and intimidation," he said of the arrest. The news of Ravi's arrest also sparked outrage worldwide. Poet Rupi Kaur said in a tweet that the "arrest is alarming and the world needs to pay attention." Meena Harris, an author and the niece of US Vice President Kamala Harris, told followers to "ask why activists are being targeted and silenced by the government."
