The Supreme court on Tuesday has given direction to media to publish the official government version about the development with respect to Covid-19.
The order passed was by the division bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde , “we expect the Media (print, electronic or social) to maintain a strong sense of responsibility and ensure that unverified news capable of causing panic is not disseminated." Solicitor General Tushar Mehta held that the Central government will provide a daily bulletin through all media avenues including social media and forums to clear the doubts of people and this process would be made active within a period of 24 hours.
