Dainik Jagran — Complaint against a blatantly misleading article published in the newspaper Dainik Jagran

On 17th September, an article was published in the Dainik Jagran newspaper whose headline read as follows: "काशी विश्वनाथ मंदिर के तीन भ्रष्ट कर्मियों की जांच के आदेश, कमिश्नर दीपक अग्रवाल ने जिलाधिकारी को दी जिम्मेदारी".

On one side, the writer informs that the investigation regarding the corruption allegation is about to begin and has not yet begun. Yet he goes on to brand the accused clerks as corrupt in advance as if the investigation has been concluded.

This article is defamatory in nature and has inflicted substantial damage to the subjects of the article. The negligence of the author should be punished and the subjects be compensated by a public apology published in the newspaper in the same way as the defamatory article.
