Yesterday, On 9th December, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy filed a Rs.100 crore defamation suit against various media outlets for allegedly publishing false information linking him to the Adani Group’s indictment. The Delhi High Court has taken notice and issued summons. Reddy seeks an injunction, removal of articles, and an apology, highlighting the need for accountable journalism.
The Kerala High Court directed the State Government to clarify whether Government Pleaders are classified as Gazetted Officers within one month. This decision arose from a petition concerning marriage registration, where the application was rejected due to attestation issues. The Court emphasized the need for clarity on this status to avoid confusion.
