Constitutional Crisis in a College

constitutional du_llb advanced case_analysis

Rohan, a student of Delhi University, feels that his college is violating Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution by preventing him from organizing an event where he plans to stage a skit critical of the college administration. The college authorities claim that the event could lead to a disruption in the peaceful functioning of the institution and therefore they have the power to restrict it under Article 19(2).

The college also cites a university notification that prohibits the display of any content deemed 'objectionable' or 'inimical to national interest'. Rohan, who is an active member of the college's AISA (All India Students' Association), believes that the authorities are trying to stifle his freedom of expression and wants to challenge their decision in court.

So, what legal remedy applies in this scenario? Can Rohan file a writ petition under Article 226?
