The Supreme Court on Wednesday, in the Media One ban case, reiterated its intention to examine the legality of governments filing incriminating material in sealed covers without sharing the information with the accused/other party.
The court allowed the Central government more time to file its counter giving reasons for banning Kerala-based news channel Media One.
The issue of "sealed cover jurisprudence" came up in the previous hearing on March 15, when the Centre wanted to pass on to the court its internal files regarding the ban in a sealed cover.
