Delhi University professor Ratan Lal granted bail after he was arrested by Delhi Police for his Shivling post on social media and booked for promoting enmity.

#GyanvapiMosque #Shivling @DelhiPolice @ratanlal72 Image
Judge in bail order: The undersigned, in personal life, is a proud follower of Hindu religion and would call the post distasteful and unnecessary comment made on a controversial topic.
#GyanvapiMosque #Shivling @DelhiPolice @ratanlal72
Judge: For another person, the same post can appear to be shameful but may not incite the feeling of hatred towards another community.

#GyanvapiMosque #Shivling @DelhiPolice @ratanlal72
Judge: Similarly, different persons may consider the post differently without being enraged and may in fact feel sorry for the accused to have made an unwanted comment without considering the repercussions.
