💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court of India overturned a Delhi High Court order that directed Wikipedia to delete information about a legal dispute between the news agency ANI and Wikimedia. The High Court had ordered the removal of a Wikipedia page following a defamation case filed by ANI, citing potential harm to ANI's reputation. The Supreme Court ruled that such directives overstepped judicial boundaries and threatened open discourse on judicial proceedings.
