[PIL against media trial in SSR case] Issue guidelines to regulate media reporting, give new dimension to Art. 19: Petitioner to Bombay HC

Asim Sarode, who has moved a PIL in the Bombay High Court raising grievance over the way the media has reported on the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, has suggested that the Court issue guidelines to regulate the print or broadcast media without curtailing the freedom of the press.

He adds that these guidelines will regulate the press until the legislature actually passes a law for regulation of the media. Sarode is one of the petitioners amongst a group of PIL petitions challenging the media trial in the Sushant Singh Rajput case.
