The Delhi High Court on Tuesday upheld activist Medha Patkar’s conviction in a defamation case filed by Delhi LG V K Saxena.
Justice Shalinder Kaur ruled that the trial court’s decision, which Patkar had challenged, showed no signs of legal error and did not warrant any intervention.
LG Saxena had filed the case 23 years ago when he was heading an NGO in Gujarat.
