CW-2025-0076TelanganaJudgment 10 September 2025
Telangana Man vs The State of Telangana
The High Court examined three FIRs registered over social media posts mocking the ruling party on complaints by third parties. The High Court held that the posts were plainly political criticism and satire and disclosed no cognizable offence. The High Court held that continuation of the proceedings would amount to an abuse of process. The High Court quashed all three FIRs and directed detailed guidelines for police to follow before registering FIRs over speech, with a copy to the DGP.
