Case History
Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 5826/2001 On May 3, 2002, the Supreme Court disposed of the special leave petitions filed by the Press Council of India against the Indian Federation of Working Journalists. An interim order passed on April 3, 2001 had resulted in the Press Council's reconstitution. The Court clarified that the Council's constitution remains subject to orders from pending High Court Writ Petitions and dismissed the application for directions (IA No.2). The Court also ordered transfer of Writ Petition No.830 from the Allahabad High Court to the Delhi High Court to consolidate related proceedings and ensure expeditious disposal.
