The bench is scheduled to hear the matter again on July 30. In May, the court had directed broadcasters to submit self-declaration forms on the Broadcast Seva portal managed by the Information and Broadcasting Ministry (I&B Ministry).
It also mandated the central government to establish a new portal for filing such declarations for advertisements in print media. Television, radio, and internet associations have also applied to intervene in the proceedings.
Here is the list of the banned products:
Roof of Delhi Airport and Jabalpur Airport collapse, 1 dead, 5 injured
The court also directed the Centre to engage with stakeholders and senior officials from the I&B Ministry to address the issues faced by advertisers. It also recommended involving the Ministry of Consumer Affairs as a party in the matter.
The next hearing is set for August 6. It is noteworthy that, so far, the Supreme Court has not accepted apologies from Baba Ramdev and Patanjali Ayurveda’s MD, who remain “proposed contemnors” in the case.
