"To say that the Lakshman Rekha is breached does not mean the Ram Setu is broken," Lohia tells Bombay HC
3 Checkpoints already in place:
1) Self Regulatory Body
2) Government body
3) Courts
-Lohia for Zee News tells Bombay High Court
The Lakshman Rekha is there. No one is saying that nothing should happen if this Lakshman Rekha is breached. This Lakshman Rekha is governed by legislations already in place and no more legislations needed, says Lohia.
In two petitions in which I appear, in both cases, both petitions recognise that there is an existing framework and that there are checks and balances in place, Lohia for Zee News says.
Counsel for Zee News says that he adopts Mr. Datar's arguments.
"As far as the allegations are concerned, they are not of media trial," says Advocate Ankit Lohia
Pandey concludes.
Counsel for ZeeNews, India tv news, & Press Council of India are to make submissions.
