In July 2023, the Government of Maharashtra allegedly constituted the State and Divisional Accreditation Committees illegally, by granting representation to ineligible organizations.
To challenge and seek cancellation of these unlawful committees, the Press Council of Maharashtra has filed Writ Petition No. 10070 of 2023, which is scheduled for final hearing on Monday, 13th October 2025 at 3:30 PM, before the HonтАЩble Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, comprising HonтАЩble Justice Smt. Vibha V. Kanakanwadi and HonтАЩble Justice Shri Hiten S. Venegaonkar.
Legal experts opine that the forthcoming judgment in this case is likely to be historic and precedent-setting regarding the boundaries of media freedom and governmental control.
