A bench of Chief Justice D N Patel, however, declined interim protection to students from coercive action including arrest.

Lawyers chanted "shame shame" after the high court declined students interim protection.

The court's decision came while hearing six petitions seeking medical treatment and compensation for injured students in the protests against CAA over the past few days.
