SWAPNIL TRIPATHI VS SUPREME COURT OF INDIA

The Supreme Court allowed the petition and held that live streaming of court proceedings should be introduced as a pilot project for cases of constitutional and national importance being heard by the Chief Justice of India. The Court found that live streaming would be an extension of the principle of open courts and access to justice, which will serve diverse stakeholders and the public at large. Justice Khanwilkar authored the majority opinion on behalf of himself and Chief Justice Misra, while Justice Chandrachud authored a separate concurring opinion.The Supreme Court issued model guidelines for live streaming of court proceedings, initially to be implemented at the Supreme Court.

The Chief Justices of the High Courts were advised to frame appropriate rules for this purpose, taking into account the model guidelines suggested by the Supreme Court.
