  • Compendium of Adjudications 2006-2007
    PRESS COUNCIL OF INDIA Compendium of Adjudications (April 1, 2006-March 31, 2007) New Delhi Compendium of Adjudications Contents Preface Index of the Adjudications of the Council for -- 1 the period April 1, 2006 – March 31, 2007 Adjudications of the Council -- 17 PREFACE The Press Council has to perform a major function in adjudicating on complaints by and against the Press, and while discharging it, to evolve a code of professional ethics for the journalists, and norms of conduct for the authorities vis a vis the Press. The Council by taking measures to put the processing of the cases on a fast track is trying to shorten the period of disposal of the complaints. But much more has to be achieved in this direction. The present Compendium gives an account of the complaints received from and against the press and the number of complaints adjudicated during the year. I must emphasize that Press Council is not alternative to courts. Its object is to set standards in journalism by encouraging self-regulation and at same time to ensure that its freedom is not trampled upon. The adjudications rendered during the year will, I am sure, contribute largely to the case laws on the subject. (G.N.
