In a major relief to Adani Enterprises Limited (AEL), a Delhi court has issued an interim injunction restraining the publication and circulation of unverified content alleged to be defamatory against the company.
The order, passed by Senior Civil Judge Anuj Kumar Singh, came while hearing a suit filed by AEL. The company alleged that a series of coordinated online publications, including articles, posts, and videos, were aimed at damaging its reputation and undermining its global business operations.
Court Observations
The court noted that there was a “prima facie case in favour of the plaintiff” and that allowing continued circulation of the disputed material could cause irreparable harm.
“Even the balance of convenience lies in favour of the plaintiff, considering that continual forwarding, publishing, re-tweeting and trolling would further tarnish its image in public perception and may result in a media trial,” the order stated.
