Supreme Court Refuses to Quash FIR Against Singer Neha Singh Rathore
The Supreme Court dismissed Bhojpuri singer and activist Neha Singh Rathore's plea to quash a First Information Report (FIR) over social media posts on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A bench of Justices JK Maheshwari and Vijay Bishnoi said it was not inclined to interfere at this stage, but clarified that Rathore could raise objections regarding the charges during trial.
The case stems from a FIR filed in Lucknow after Rathore's social media posts following the Pahalgam terror attack, where she alleged that
Modi visited Bihar to threaten Pakistan in order to win votes in the name of nationalism.
Rathore's posts also referenced the Bihar elections and Hindu-Muslim politics.
