Amit Jethwa was shot dead by assailants in 2010 while outside the gates of the Gujarat High Court, days after he filed a petition accusing Solanki of being involved in illegal mining near Gir forest.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday reserved its judgment on the plea by Prabir Purkayastha, the editor of NewsClick, who has challenged his arrest and remand by the Delhi Police in connection with a UAPA case.
The Court noted that since the school had not applied for regularisation, it did not have any legally enforceable right to seek the extension of recognition to continue functioning on the said grazing land.
