SC on Delhi HC ruling: Should courts be so touchy about criticism?

The Supreme Court questioned the Delhi high court's order urging Wikimedia to remove a page criticizing judiciary proceedings. The bench stated such removal orders should only be issued if content is deemed contemptuous, not merely critical. Wikimedia opposed the HC order, emphasizing its importance for media freedom, referencing a defamation case by ANI. The page is already removed.
