Pillai was invited to talk about her campaign with local communities in Mahan in Madhya Pradesh, where a proposed coal mining project is allegedly threatening to uproot the lives and livelihood of the community.
The Central Government had offloaded Pillai and also issued a 'look out' circular against which she moved the court.
The Central Government had earlier told the court that Pillai was 'involved in anti-national activities' and that was why she was offloaded at the airport.
