For instance,the petition points out Rule 3vi which,it says,is drastic in nature. The Rule says any group that habitually indulges in bandhs,hartals,rasta roko,rail roko,or jail bharo would be declared a political organisation and their action termed political.

It also said the term political activity is defined too loosely and arbitrarily including steps taken towards advancement of political interests by groups working for rights of farmers,students; outfits set up by youth on the basis of caste,religion,language even if they are not aligned to any political party.
