The court found beyond reasonable doubt that the accused intentionally displayed and chanted slogans directed at the Vice‑Chancellor during a formal convocation, that the words and manner constituted an insulting act capable of provoking the person addressed and the audience, and that the accused planned the act and thus had knowledge/intention that the provocation was likely to cause a breach of the peace; accordingly the elements of s.504 Penal Code were satisfied and conviction was appropriate, with a fine imposed after mitigation was considered.
