A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Supreme Court challenging the Delhi Police's use of facial recognition technology and biometric surveillance during the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)-linked protests over the NEET UG 2026 paper leak. Filed by Rajya Sabha MP A.A. Rahim, the petition seeks a declaration that the deployment of facial recognition and related surveillance measures against peaceful protesters is unconstitutional. It also urges the Court to direct authorities to immediately stop using such technology without a valid legal framework, reports The Hindu.
