Khan has vowed to avoid future demonstrations as he challenges a Leave India Notice.
Why it matters
The case centers on whether Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) status grants the right to engage in political demonstrations. The Bombay High Court characterized Khan's participation in the protest as instigation. This legal battle determines the limits of foreign national residency rights in India.
