The plea challenges the summons issued by a Delhi trial court in a criminal defamation case filed by former JNU professor Amita Singh.

A Bench of Justices MM Sundresh and Satish Chandra Sharma issued notice on the petition and remarked, “I think time has come to decriminalise all this.” Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for the petitioners, agreed with the observation. As reported by Live Law and Bar & Bench.
