Veteran journalist Rajat Sharma has approached the Delhi High Court claiming defamation by Congress leaders Ragini Nayak, Jairam Ramesh, and Pawan Khera. According to Sharma, the leaders used abusive language against him during his show on the Lok Sabha elections result day.

Sharma's counsel urged the court for immediate relief, requesting the ex-parte removal of offensive tweets and videos on social media. The court, hearing the arguments, has reserved its order.

Sharma, who is the Chairman and Editor-in-Chief of INDIA TV, argued that these accusations have severely tarnished his reputation. Senior Advocate Maninder Singh emphasized the necessity for quick judicial intervention to prevent further harm to Sharma's four-decade-long career.
