The Supreme Court today granting relief to the

A division bench of the Delhi High Court, on December 22 last year, had ordered for the initiation of contempt proceedings against her after taking note of her alleged objectionable words in four applications seeking removal of adverse remarks passed by a high court judge in as many civil appeals.
