The Supreme Court has issued directions to the Jawaharlal Nehru University to verify if any dossier, which allegedly depicted the varsity as a “den of organised sex racket”, was ever submitted by a professor. The court was hearing a petition against a Delhi high court order that had set aside summons issued to the editor and deputy editor of the Wire, according to a PTI report.
The high court had granted relief to the portal in March in a criminal defamation case filed by Amita Singh, professor and chairperson of the Centre for Study of Law and Governance at JNU.
