#SupremeCourt hears petition filed by Telugu daily 'Eenadu' challenging a GO allegedly aimed at improving sales of 'Sakshi' newspaper (owned by CM of Andhra Pradesh)

CJI DY Chandrachud: We will transfer this to Delhi HC.

#SupremeCourt #SupremeCourtofIndia Image
Adv CS Vaidyanathan: This would cast aspersions on the Andhra Pradesh HC.

CJI DY Chandrachud: We will make sure it doesn't...what weighed upon us is that this is not between two newspapers, this is between two political parties.

#SupremeCourt #SupremeCourtofIndia
CJI DY Chandrachud: We thought of Delhi HC because other HCs are a little overburdened and all of you will only have to travel a kilometre to argue before Delhi HC.
