Too Hot To Handle: After Rajya Sabha, Sach Ka Saamna In Court

Two petitions have been filed in the Delhi High Court seeking to stop the telecast of controversial game show Sach Ka Saamna on Star Plus. A single-member bench adjourned the case earlier today and referred the matter to a division bench headed by chief justice A.P. Shah. The matter will come up for hearing on 29 July. Justice Sanjeev Khanna said the chief justice should hear the case as it is of public interest in nature.

The defendants in the case are Star Plus and producer Sidhartha Basu of Big Synergy.

Opposition MPs have demanded a discussion on the show in the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Indian Parliament.
