Sanjoy Narayan Ed.In Ch. … vs Son. High Court Of Allahabad Thr. … on 30 August, 2011<\/div>\n
Bench: Mukundakam Sharma, Anil R. Dave<\/div>\n
                                                   1\n\n\n                          IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA                REPORTABLE\n                    CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION\n\n                    CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 1683\/2011\n             (Arising out of SLP(Crl.) No. 4876 of 2011)\n\n\n\nSANJOY NARAYAN EDITOR IN CHIEF HINDUSTAN & ORS.   Appellant(s)\n\n                 VERSUS\n\nHON. HIGH COURT OF ALLAHABAD THR. R.G.            Respondent(s)\n\n\n\n                                  O R D E R\n<\/pre>\n
1.      Leave granted.\n<\/p>\n
\n
2.      This   appeal   is   directed   against   the   order   dated <\/p>\n
04.04.2011 passed by the Allahabad High Court.   <\/p>\n
3.      The   appellants   being   aggrieved   by   the   aforesaid   order <\/p>\n
had filed this appeal on which we issued notice.   On service <\/p>\n
of   the   notice,   the   respondent   has   also   entered   appearance <\/p>\n
through counsel.\n<\/p>\n
\n
4.      We   have   heard   the   counsel   appearing   for   the   parties. <\/p>\n
The appellants have now filed an affidavit which is on record <\/p>\n
tendering   unqualified   apology   for   the   publication   of   article <\/p>\n
in   question   in   Hindustan   Times   on   20.09.2010   out   of   which <\/p>\n
contempt proceedings arise.\n<\/p>\n
\n
5.      The   media,   be   it   electronic   or   print   media,   is <\/p>\n
                                         2<\/span><\/p>\n
generally called the fourth pillar of democracy.   The media, <\/p>\n
in   all   its   forms,   whether   electronic   or   print,   discharges   a <\/p>\n
very   onerous   duty   of   keeping   the   people   knowledgeable   and <\/p>\n
informed.\n<\/p>\n
\n
6.      The impact of media is far-reaching as it reaches not <\/p>\n
only the people physically but also influences them mentally. <\/p>\n
It   creates   opinions,   broadcasts   different   points   of   view, <\/p>\n
brings to the fore wrongs and lapses of the Government and all <\/p>\n
other governing bodies and is an important tool in restraining <\/p>\n
corruption   and   other   ill-effects   of   society.     The   media <\/p>\n
ensures   that   the   individual   actively   participates   in   the <\/p>\n
decision-making   process.     The   right   to   information   is <\/p>\n
fundamental in encouraging the individual to be a part of the <\/p>\n
governing process.   The enactment of the Right to Information <\/p>\n
Act<\/a> is the most empowering step in this direction.   The role <\/p>\n
of   people   in   a   democracy   and   that   of   active   debate   is <\/p>\n
essential for the functioning of a vibrant democracy. <\/p>\n
7.      With   this   immense   power,   comes   the   burden   of <\/p>\n
responsibility.  With the huge amount of information that they <\/p>\n
process, it is the responsibility of the media to ensure that <\/p>\n
they   are   not   providing   the   public   with   information   that   is <\/p>\n
factually wrong, biased or simply unverified information.  The <\/p>\n
right to freedom of speech is enshrined in Article 19(1)(a)<\/a> of <\/p>\n
                                          3<\/span><\/p>\n
the   Constitution.     However,   this   right   is   restricted   by <\/p>\n
Article 19(2)<\/a> in the interest of the sovereignty and integrity <\/p>\n
of   India,   security   of   the   State,   public   order,   decency   and <\/p>\n
morality and also Contempt of Courts Act<\/a> and defamation. <\/p>\n
8.      The  unbridled power  of the  media can  become dangerous <\/p>\n
if check and balance is not inherent in it.   The role of the <\/p>\n
media is to provide to the readers and the public in general <\/p>\n
with   information   and   views   tested   and   found   as   true   and <\/p>\n
correct.     This   power   must   be   carefully   regulated   and   must <\/p>\n
reconcile with a person’s fundamental right to privacy.   Any <\/p>\n
wrong or biased information that is put forth can potentially <\/p>\n
damage the otherwise clean and good reputation of the person <\/p>\n
or   institution   against   whom   something   adverse   is   reported. <\/p>\n
Pre-judging   the   issues   and   rushing   to   conclusions   must   be <\/p>\n
avoided.\n<\/p>\n
\n
9.      This is exactly what has happened in the present case. <\/p>\n
The   then   Chief   Justice   of   the   Allahabad   High   Court   who   has <\/p>\n
otherwise   proved   himself   to   be   a   competent   and   good   Judge <\/p>\n
wherever he was posted during his career was brought under a <\/p>\n
cloud   by   the   reporting   which   is   the   subject   matter   of   this <\/p>\n
petition.  His image was sought to be tarnished by a newspaper <\/p>\n
report which was apparently based on surmises and conjectures <\/p>\n
and not based on facts and figures.  The dignity of the courts <\/p>\n
                                          4<\/span><\/p>\n
and the people’s faith in administration must not be tarnished <\/p>\n
because of biased and unverified reporting.  In order to avoid <\/p>\n
such biased reporting, one must be careful to verify the facts <\/p>\n
and   do   some   research   on   the   subject   being   reported   before   a <\/p>\n
publication is brought out.\n<\/p>\n
\n
10.     We   are   glad   that   the   persons   against   whom   contempt <\/p>\n
proceedings were initiated for a wrong and incorrect reporting <\/p>\n
about   the   then   Chief   Justice   as   aforesaid   have   understood <\/p>\n
their   mistake   and   have   expressed   their   repentance   through <\/p>\n
their   advocate   and   also   themselves   by   filing   an   unqualified <\/p>\n
apology before us for the wrong done.\n<\/p>\n
\n
11.     On going through the impugned order also we find that <\/p>\n
apology   tendered   before   the   Allahabad   High   Court   was   not <\/p>\n
accepted   only   because   it   was   felt   that   the   same   was   not <\/p>\n
unqualified.   Now, by filing an affidavit they have tendered <\/p>\n
unconditional apology.\n<\/p>\n
\n
12.     The judiciary also must be magnanimous in accepting an <\/p>\n
apology when filed through an affidavit duly sworn, conveying <\/p>\n
remorse for such publication.   This indicates that they have <\/p>\n
accepted   their   mistake   and   fault.     This   Court   has   also   time <\/p>\n
and again reiterated that this Court is not hypersensitive in <\/p>\n
matter relating to Contempt of Courts Act<\/a> and has always shown <\/p>\n
                                          5<\/span><\/p>\n
magnanimity   in   accepting   the   apology.     Therefore,   we   accept <\/p>\n
the  aforesaid unqualified  apology submitted  by them  and drop <\/p>\n
the proceeding.\n<\/p>\n
\n
13.     With   the   aforesaid   observations,   we   order   for   closure <\/p>\n
of   the   proceedings   initiated   against   the   appellants   herein <\/p>\n
under   the   Contempt   of   Courts   Act<\/a>   by   keeping   the   affidavit <\/p>\n
filed   by   the   appellants   on   record   with   a   direction   to   the <\/p>\n
appellants to publish the apology as stated in the affidavit <\/p>\n
in the first page of Lucknow edition of Hindustan Times to be <\/p>\n
published on 01.09.2011 and also at such other place, wherever <\/p>\n
there   was   any   such   publication,   in   a   daily   issue   of   the <\/p>\n
newspaper at some prominent place of the newspaper.<\/p>\n
14.     We appreciate the gesture of the counsel appearing for <\/p>\n
the parties and also for the fact they endorse the same view <\/p>\n
as expressed in this order.\n<\/p>\n
\n
15.     The   appeal   is   disposed   of   in   terms   of   the     aforesaid <\/p>\n
directions and observations.\n<\/p>\n
