A Delhi court has held NDTV’s Gargi Rawat liable for defamation for liking a tweet that falsely accused Abhijit Iyer-Mitra of rape. She has been ordered to pay Rs 10,000 in damages and delete the tweet if still visible.
A Delhi Court directed police to file an FIR and investigate journalist Rana Ayyub’s tweets on Hindu deities and Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, following allegations of mocking Hindu beliefs and promoting communal discord. The Court emphasized the seriousness of the accusations under IPC Sections 153A, 295A, and 505, calling for swift police action to ensure justice.
