Anjana Om Kashyap Files ₹2 Crore Defamation Case Against Khan Sir and 4PM News in Delhi High Court Anjana Om Kashyap, a prominent journalist and media personality, has filed a defamation case worth ₹2 crore in the Delhi High Court against Khan Sir, 4PM News, and several other defendants. The case, listed for hearing on June 8 before the vacation bench of Justice Neena Bansal Krishna, alleges that the defendants engaged in a coordinated campaign to defame Kashyap and her organization, India Today. The suit seeks the removal of defamatory content, an order to cease further posts, and compensation for damages. The legal action was initiated after Kashyap hosted a debate on Aaj Tak on May 29, 2026, during which she critiqued the growing influence of online "star teachers" and the commercialization of education. She argued that her remarks were part of a fair journalistic discussion on a matter of national importance. However, the suit claims that this sparked a sustained campaign by defendants with significant social media followings, targeting Kashyap and her network between May 30 and June 4. The defendants, including prominent educators like Abhinay Sharma, Babita Tyagi, and Arvind Bhadauriya, as well as X handles and the 4PM News Network, are accused of using abusive and scandalous language to subject Kashyap to insults, ridicule, and public hostility. The suit alleges that these actions were entirely unrelated to any legitimate public debate. Additionally, Khan Sir is specifically named for publicly disclosing information about the school attended by Kashyap’s child, which she claims was irrelevant to the controversy and exposed her family to harassment, unwanted attention, and security risks.#delhi_high_court #khan_sir #anjana_om_kashyap #4pm_news #abhinay_sharma
