Supreme Court Upholds Live-Streaming, Seeks Guidelines to Prevent Misuse of Court Videos
The Supreme Court affirmed there will be no restrictions on live-streaming court proceedings, emphasizing transparency and openness. However, it expressed concern over misuse of video clips for personal promotion, monetisation, advertising, and misrepresentation, which harms the judiciary's integrity. The court directed the Centre to submit suggestions within two weeks for guidelines to prevent commercial exploitation, while existing restrictions on sharing court clips on platforms like YouTube remain in effect until further orders.
