Kumar Sanu gets interim relief in defamation case against ex-wife Rita Bhattacharya

• Playback singer Kumar Sanu secured interim relief in his defamation suit against ex-wife Rita Bhattacharya.
• The court order provides temporary protection against defamatory statements, extending to digital service providers like Google and Meta Platforms, and "John Doe" defendants.
• Advocate Sana Raees Khan highlighted the ruling's importance in safeguarding individual dignity and holding social media platforms accountable for online defamation.
• This follows Sanu's earlier plea to the Delhi High Court in October for protection of his "personality and publicity rights."
• The previous plea addressed unauthorized commercial exploitation of his identity, leading to a court order for content removal and data preservation.
