Supreme Court: News Clips of Proceedings Need Permission to Publish

The Supreme Court is the highest court in the country, and sometimes its hearings are recorded or shown live.

On Wednesday, the judges talked about how newspapers and TV channels use those recordings.

Some news organisations had questions about the rules for such reporting.

The Chief Justice of India said that people cannot just take clips from the court proceedings.

Without permission, those clips cannot be published in papers or put on websites.

They also cannot be shown on television.

This means news organisations must ask the court first.

The bench that heard these petitions included the Chief Justice and two other judges.

The decision helps make the rules clear for everyone covering court hearings.
