Today, On 23rd February, The Supreme Court of India said during a plea on the Tirupati laddu adulteration row that the Andhra Pradesh cannot run an administrative inquiry parallel to its Court-ordered investigation. Reaffirming that action cannot overlap or interfere with investigation.
Former TTD Chairman YV Subba Reddy plans to approach the Supreme Court seeking a gag order to counter misinformation in the Tirupati laddu ‘adulterated ghee’ controversy, calling the allegations politically motivated and demanding transparency through the ongoing SIT investigation.
The News Broadcasting and Digital Standards Authority (NBDSA) has recently asked the media channel News18 Rajasthan to remove a misleading video that falsely linked the use of beef fat in Tirupati Laddu to a conspiracy by the Congress party.
The Supreme Court rejected a petition by activist K.A. Paul for a CBI investigation into alleged adulteration of Tirupati Laddu, citing the impracticality of creating separate states for religious matters. Previous claims of animal fat usage in the laddus caused political conflict, with ongoing investigations managed by a Special Investigation Team.
