"Not Satisfied With Centre's Response": Supreme Court On Patanjali Ad Row
NDTV
Rejecting another set of apologies filed by Patanjali founders Ramdev and Balkrishna for the company's misleading ads, the Supreme Court today said "we are not blind" and that "it does not want to be generous" in this case. The court also noted that it is not satisfied with the Centre's reply in the matter.
"The apology is on paper. Their back is against the wall. We decline to accept this, we consider it a deliberate violation of undertaking," the bench of Justice Hima Kohli and Justice A Amanullah said.
At the beginning of the proceedings, the bench noted that Ramdev and Balkrishna sent their apologies to the media first. "Till the matter hit the Court, the contemnors did not find it fit to send us the affidavits. They sent it to the media first, till 7.30 pm yesterday it was not uploaded for us. They believe in publicity clearly," Justice Kohli said.
