The Delhi High Court issued a significant ruling on Monday, denying student activist Devangana Kalita's plea to reconstruct case diaries from a 2020 riots investigation she is involved in.

Justice Ravinder Dudeja, however, granted a request to preserve these crucial documents, marking a partial victory for Kalita's legal team.

The activist's plea came after a trial court rejected the move to summon the case diaries, citing potential delays, amidst allegations of the police adding backdated statements to the records.
