The Delhi High Court directed the removal of online content allegedly infringing former cricketer Yuvraj Singh's personality rights, giving uploaders 48 hours to comply. The court refused to issue a blanket order for future content, stating platforms cannot determine infringement on their own and that fresh applications must be filed for new violations.
New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Wednesday directed the removal of certain online content allegedly infringing the personality rights of former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh, while making it clear that it would not grant a blanket injunction against future content at this stage.
Passing an interim order, a single-judge Bench of Justice Jyoti Singh directed that the uploaders of the URLs identified in the suit first remove the allegedly infringing content within 48 hours.
The Delhi High Court said that if the uploaders fail to comply, Yuvraj Singh may approach the concerned intermediary platforms, which would then be required to remove the content within 36 hours.
Justice Singh clarified that the interim protection would, for the present, be confined to the URLs specifically identified in the suit and declined to issue a general direction requiring online platforms to remove similar or identical content in the future.
