Delhi High Court pauses defamation proceedings against Sudarshan TV and Suresh Chavhanke

The Delhi High Court stayed a criminal defamation case against Sudarshan TV and chairman Suresh Chavhanke until the next hearing on October 28.

Why it matters

The interim order affects the balance between reputation claims and media speech while leaving the underlying allegations unresolved pending judicial review.

Bar & Bench reports the court's stay and next hearing date from the proceedings. The order is interim and does not decide the merits of the defamation complaint.

Medium confidence — The event is supported by the supplied report and is stated with attribution; unresolved details are identified in the evidence note.
