Delhi High Court Refuses Interim Restraint on Gurbani Telecast by Private Channel
The Delhi High Court declined to grant interim relief to the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) seeking to restrain Galactic Television from broadcasting Gurbani recitals from the Golden Temple. The court noted that Gurbani, as a literary and musical work, when broadcast for genuine religious purposes without commercial gain, does not constitute copyright infringement under the Copyright Act. The case is scheduled for further hearing on September 24, with the channel required to respond to the SGPC's suit.
