On Monday, Supreme Court Judge Justice Dr. Dhananjaya Yeshwant Chandrachud said Anti-terror law should not be “misused for quelling dissent”  , as he was addressing an event on the legal ties between India and the United States. 

“Criminal law, including anti-terror legislation, should not be misused for quelling dissent or harassment of citizens. As I noted in my judgement in Arnab Goswami vs the state, our courts must ensure that they continue to remain the first defense against the deprivation of liberty of citizens,” Justice Chandrachud said. 

He was speaking at the Indo-US Joint Summer Conference on Indo-US legal ties. 

“Deprivation of liberty for even a single day is one too many. We must always be mindful of the deeper systemic issues of our decisions,” he added.
