SC had observed it would form a committee leading to formation of standards for electronic media. It had also said that one "cannot say that Muslims are infiltrating the civil services." The channel was injuncted from airing any more episodes till further orders.
Centre in its reply has informed SC that it should first regulate digital media as it has a wider reach. Next ir contends that SC should not lay down standards without an amicus or committee of amicus since its one show or a few episodes.
@MIB_India
News Broadcasters Association, on the other hand says their regulations are referred to by various HCs and that they have rules and an authority in place to recieve complaints against electronic media, impose cost on them or even refer them to @MIB_India for license revocation
.@SureshChavhanke @SudarshanNewsTV has informed SC that UPSC Jihad was used as a terminology in the show owing to the foreign funding pooled in by the Zakat Foundation and how "infiltration was happening in the UPSC"

#SupremeCourt hears plea by BRS President and former Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao challenging the Telangana High Court's decision to dismiss his petition against a commission formed by the state government Image
Sr Adv Mukul Rohatgi: Plain case of political vendetta. Every time the government changes there is a case against the former chief minister

CJI DY Chandrachud: we will clarify that by calling it judicial enquiry they cannot take it outside the scope of the commission @TSwithKCR
Rohatgi: you cannot fix responsibility in a fact finding commission. This was for approval of tariff ..there was a power crisis and thus state bought power from state of chhatisgarh and thus the PPA needed approval from Chhattisgarh state commission and Telangana state commission.

#BREAKING

Supreme Court DISMISSES plea by Deputy CM of Karantaka DK Shivakumar to quash CBI's disproportionate assets case against him under provisions of Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988.

A bench of Justices Bela Trivedi and Satish Chandra Sharma heard the matter. Image
Trivedi J: How High Can stay the sanction order granted by government? This is unheard of.

Senior Adv Rohatagi (for Shivakumar): That is withdrawn already.

Trivedi J to State: That is different thing but how High Court can grant such order?
Senior Adv Rohatagi (for Shivakumar): We are on a new question, the ground is this court has held that if the predicate offence is only conspiracy, it cannot be a stand alone offence and it has to be added by some other offence as well. I am questioning the FIR lodged by CBI which is completely illegal. I am not on any part by ED. I am on the FIR dated 3.10.20 under PC Act by CBI. Section 17A which has come in 2018 requirement has not been fulfilled (referring to split verdict of Justice Trivedi and Justice Bopanna)

Trivedi J: We cannot quash the case on the basis of split verdict by this court.

Senior Adv Rohatagi: But one judge has ruled in our favor.

Trivedi J: So what, that cannot be the basis of quashing. No quashing at all.

Delhi High Court orders removal of tweets by Congress leaders Ragini Nayak, Jairam Ramesh, and Pawan Khera alleging that journalist Rajat Sharma abused Nayak on live-television.

@RajatSharmaLive @NayakRagini @Jairam_Ramesh @Pawankhera Image
High Court holds that Congress leaders over-sensationalised the incident and did not remain truthful.
"It cannot be denied that the citizens have a right to freedom of Speech and expression but there was also a corresponding duty to remain truthful to the incident. The X posts berating the plaintiff are nothing but an oversensationalization and depiction of facts which are patently false," the court said.
