Bombay High Court Issues Contempt Notice to CINTAA Over October 20 Election Results
The Bombay High Court issued a contempt show-cause notice to the Cine and Television Artistes Association (CINTAA) after it conducted elections and declared results on October 20, 2026, despite earlier court orders to maintain status quo. The court barred CINTAA from implementing the election outcomes and directed them to submit reply affidavits before the next hearing on November 18. The contempt petition was filed by the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), alleging wilful disobedience of court directives.
