Allahabad HC Rejects Singer's Plea Over Pahalgam Attack Posts
A singer named Neha Singh Rathore made posts on social media about a terrorist attack.
The government filed a case against her.
She asked the Allahabad High Court to stop the case, but the court said no.
The court believes her posts might be against the law and wants the police to investigate.
She must now help the police with their investigation.
The court thought the timing of her posts, right after the attack, was worth noting.
She accused the government of exploiting the attack for political gain.
Neha Singh Rathore's petition to quash the FIR was dismissed by the Allahabad High Court.
The FIR related to social media posts concerning the Pahalgam terror attack.
The court stated the posts contained derogatory comments about the PM and could warrant a police investigation.

The timing of Rathore's posts was considered sensitive by the court.
