New Delhi: The Delhi Police on Saturday (February 20, 2021) told the court hearing activist Disha Ravi's bail plea in the toolkit case that the real plan was to defame India and create unrest in the country. 

According to the PTI news agency, Delhi Police told the court, "This was not just a toolkit. The real plan was to defame India and create unrest here."

Delhi Police also stated that 22-year old Disha Ravi was in touch with those advocating Khalistan and covered her track.

"Why did Disha Ravi cover her track, delete evidence if she did not commit wrong. This shows her guilty mind and sinister design," Delhi Police told Court that reserved order for Tuesday (February 23) on activists' bail application.

They added that Disha Ravi deleted WhatsApp chats and was aware of legal actions. "It shows there was sinister design behind this toolkit," Police told the court.

Meanwhile, Disha Ravi's counsel told the court on the bail plea that she is not a rebel without a cause. "There’s a cause of environment, of agriculture and interlink between them," the Disha Ravi's counsel said.

The Counsel stated that there is no evidence to show that the toolkit is responsible for violence during the farmers' march.

"Nobody arrested in connection with Red Fort violence has said that he was inspired by the toolkit," the Defence said and added that there is no evidence to link Disha Ravi with Sikhs For Justice, which is a banned organisation.

This is to be noted that Ravi was arrested by a Cyber Cell team of the Delhi Police from Bengaluru on February 13 and brought to Delhi. She has been arrested for allegedly being involved in sharing a toolkit on social media related to the ongoing farmers' protest.

Earlier on Friday, Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg tweeted extending her support to Disha Ravi and said that freedom of speech, the right to peaceful protest and assembly are non-negotiable human rights. "These must be a fundamental part of any democracy," she said on Twitter, along with the hashtag Stand With Disha Ravi.
