Madhyamam Broadcasting Limited v. Union of India

An appeal was filed by news channel MediaOne against the single bench order which upheld the validity of the suspension of the news channel by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. The petition was filed after the Ministry revoked the license of the channel under the Act. The single bench had found that after analysing the material placed before it, intelligence inputs justifying the ban were found. The court upheld the ban imposed by the government and observed that there is material to show threat to national security.
