It calls for a thorough investigation to identify and punish those responsible for the unauthorised recordings.The petition also seeks punishment for the alleged contemnors under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, and strict penalties for violating the Delhi high court’s VC Rules 2021.Furthermore, the plea asks for directions to social media platforms to prevent unauthorised recordings and their dissemination, and to impose penalties on any individual or entity that fails to comply with these directions.(This story was taken from a syndicated feed, and edited only for style by Gujarat Samachar Digital staff) Also read:<a href="https://english.gujaratsamachar.com/news/national/pm-modi-holds-bilateral-talks-with-pms-of-italy-japan-on-sidelines-of-g7-summit" target="_blank">PM Modi holds bilateral talks with PMs of Italy, Japan on sidelines of G7 Summit</a> <div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://english.gujaratsamachar.com/news/national/india-only-south-asian-country-to-attend-swiss-hosted-ukraine-peace-summit" target="_blank">India only South Asian country to attend Swiss-hosted Ukraine peace summit</a> </div>
