Delhi High Court Denies Interim Relief in Swami Avimukteshwaranand Defamation Case

The Delhi High Court rejected interim relief to Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati in his defamation plea against Swami Govindananda Saraswati. The court observed there was no defamation and advised the saint to rise above such disputes. The case is set for further proceedings on August 29.

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday refused to grant interim relief to Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati in a defamation suit against Swami Govindananda Saraswati over allegedly objectionable remarks.

Justice Navin Chawla stated that defamation charges lacked substance and that an injunction was inappropriate at this stage.

The court issued a notice to the defendants and scheduled the matter for further proceedings on August 29, urging Avimukteshwaranand to transcend such concerns as a saint.
