Tejasvi Surya Media Gag Order

The Karnataka High Court on Friday set aside a gag order by a lower court on media in the defamation case filed by BJP's Bengaluru South candidate Tejasvi Surya.

Tejasvi Surya, the ruling BJP's candidate for the Bangalore South seat, has begun his campaign for the national election armed with a gag order on the media against any "defamatory and derogatory" content on him. His rivals and critics had to look no further than his Twitter timeline, a chronicle of controversial posts over the years.
