Almost two days after they were granted bail by the Delhi High Court, Pinjra Tod activists Devangana Kalita, Natasha Narwal and Jamia Millia Islamia student Asif Iqbal Tanha were released from the Tihar Jail on Thursday.
All three were released from the Tihar prison complex in New Delhi around 7.30 pm. The area outside Tihar jail was buzzing with supporters who welcomed the three activists.
Devangana Kalita told reporters outside the high security prison it feels great to breathe in the open air.
Tanha told reporters that he would continue to fight against the contentious Citizenship Ammendment Act.
