Delhi HC Grants Injunction In Favour Of LSG Owner Sanjiv Goenka In Personality Rights Case
The Delhi High Court: The Delhi High Court has granted an ex parte ad-interim injunction in favour of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) owner and industrialist Sanjiv Goenka, restraining unauthorised use of his name, image and other personality attributes across digital platforms, including content generated using artificial intelligence (AI). A single-judge Bench of Justice Tushar Rao Gedela passed the interim order while hearing a commercial suit filed by Goenka against Google LLC and other intermediaries, alleging large-scale misuse of his persona through defamatory and misleading content on social media platforms. In its order, the Delhi High Court observed that Goenka had made out a prima facie strong case and held the balance of convenience lay in his favour, adding that failure to grant interim relief could cause irreparable injury to his reputation. It further recorded that the plaintiff is a distinguished and internationally recognized business leader, philanthropist, and a visionary entrepreneur who heads the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group, a multi-billion dollar conglomerate with diversified business interests. The suit alleged that various social media posts, videos and AI-generated content were misusing Goenkas identity, portraying him in a derogatory manner, spreading fake news and causing reputational harm. Referring to the material placed on record, the Delhi High Court said that several posts and video reels were downright derogatory and use expletives, which are unpalatable in any civil society, and went beyond permissible parody. The nature of the contents do not fall within the ambit of mere parody, lampooning or caricature many of them infringe on the plaintiff's personality rights, particularly those which are generated by AI, the order said. Justice Gedela also observed that several posts and video reels placed on record were distasteful and portrayed the plaintiff in a poor light, while also appearing to spread fake information. Referring to several precedents, the judge said, The right of publicity protects against the unauthorised appropriation of an individual's very persona which would result in unearned commercial gain to another. In its directions, the Delhi High Court restrained unknown defendants (John Doe entities) and others from using or exploiting Goenkas name including variants such as Sanjeev Goenka and S. Goenka as well as his image, likeness and other identifiable attributes without authorisation, including through technologies such as AI, deepfakes, machine learning and chatbots. Justice Gedela also observed that several posts and video reels placed on record were distasteful and portrayed the plaintiff in a poor light, while also appearing to spread fake information.

Both Delhi Capitals: Both Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings are unchanged as hosts captain Axar Patel won the toss and elected to bat first in match 35 of IPL 2026 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday. While table-toppers PBKS are the lone unbeaten team in the tournament, DC have three wins and as many losses to be at sixth spot. It looks a bit dry and obviously its a day game, and its quite hot as well. So were thinking of putting up a good total first and then trying to defend it. Yes, from the looks of it, it seems like it will slow down a bit later, and the bowlers might get some help as well. So we want to post a good total first and give the bowlers a chance to make use of any assistance from the wicket, said Axar after winning the toss. He also talked about DCs intent to not make any silly mistakes in this clash. We want to focus on ourselves. Every team we are playing is playing good cricket. We have also been playing good cricket, but the thing is that in crucial moments, I think we are not winning those moments in the game. We are making silly mistakes, and if we correct those, I think we will be back on track. If consistency comes in, and if we fix the small mistakes we are making in the field or in taking decisions at crucial times, then I think we will be on the winning side most of the time. PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer, whos playing an IPL game in the national capital for the first time after 2019, said he too would have bowled first if the toss had gone his way. I would love to bowl, but thankfully, I had a small discussion with Axar before the toss. He said that he's going to bat, so I was happy that we are going to bowl and the toss was inconsequential, he said. He also spoke about the need to be in the present and being better in that moment. It's important to stay in the moment, that's how you want the environment to be. I personally feel you just have to keep training harder and keep getting better every now and then, better than the previous performance. That's what I keep telling my teammates as well. We need to inculcate the right habits in the dressing room and culture that we've been building so far. It has been, touch wood, going great. We just have to keep enjoying the game and have fun along with each other. Saturdays game will be played on pitch number six, with square boundary dimensions of 67 and 59 metres respectively, while the straight boundary stands at 73 metres.

About seven premises in Delhi-NCR are being covered as part of the action
Euronics India has wrapped up Season 3 of the Euronics Corporate Cricket League (ECCL), bringing together over 200 companies across Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Delhi NCR and Mumbai in a growing sport-led initiative focused on workplace engagement and cross-industry collaboration. Viknesh Jain & Abhishek Jain with the Euronics Team at ECCL Season 3 At a time when the popularity of the Indian Premier League has reinforced crickets ability to bring people together across cities, industries and communities, corporate cricket leagues are emerging as a new way for brands and businesses to create stronger employee engagement and industry relationships. In India, cricket has increasingly moved beyond being just a sport to becoming a platform for connection, identity and shared experiences, and ECCL reflects that same shift within the corporate ecosystem. The Mumbai leg marked the culmination of the multi-city tournament, featuring 24 teams competing across 23 matches. Over the season, ECCL saw participation from companies spanning real estate, architecture, design and allied corporate sectors, with 20 to 50 organisations participating in each city edition. Leading brands such as K Raheja Corp, Sobha Limited, CBRE, Prestige Group, Colliers, Knight Frank, Cushman & Wakefield and Space Matrix were among the participants. Moving beyond conventional networking formats such as meetings, exhibitions and conferences, ECCL is positioned as a sport-led platform that enables professionals to build relationships outside formal business settings. By bringing teams together on the field rather than across boardrooms, the initiative creates a more informal and collaborative environment for engagement across the ecosystem. Delhi NCR saw the highest participation with 48 teams, where Design Forum International emerged as champions and Proion Consultants finished as runners-up. In Bengaluru, Team Zyeta secured the title, with Team CBRE as runners-up, while Hyderabad hosted 16 teams, with RK Interiors CFS (India) Pvt Ltd emerging as champions and Interia finishing as runners-up. The Mumbai finale saw Architect Hafeez Contractor crowned champions, with HOSMAC India Pvt. Ltd. finishing as runners-up. Speaking on the conclusion of Season 3, Viknesh Jain said: Cricket has always had a unique ability to bring people together in India and the IPL has shown how the sport can create a sense of community, identity and engagement far beyond the game itself. ECCL brings that same spirit into the corporate world. What started as a cricket tournament has steadily evolved into a platform where professionals step away from formal roles, connect more openly and build stronger business relationships. The scale we are seeing today, with participation from over 200 companies across four cities, reflects a growing need for more human, experience-led ways of building business ecosystems. Abhishek Jain added: What makes ECCL work is the shift in context. When architects, developers, consultants and corporate teams come together on the field, conversations change and hierarchies dissolve. It creates a more natural way for people to connect, which is often difficult to achieve in formal business environments. Increasingly, brands are recognising that cricket can be a powerful platform not only for visibility, but also for building stronger communities within and around their organisations. Over three seasons, ECCL has steadily evolved into a platform that brings together diverse industry voices through shared experiences, reinforcing Euronics focus on building communities alongside its core business.

KL Rahul Eyes Must-Win Approach as Delhi Capitals Gear Up for Crucial Home Clashes
Delhi Capitals (DC) wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul has emphasised the importance of maintaining a must-win mindset as the side prepares for crucial back-to-back home fixtures against the Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at their home ground- the Arun Jaitley Stadium. DC are currently placed sixth in the points table with three wins and three losses from six matches. They began their campaign with consecutive victories over Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians, before suffering back-to-back defeats against Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings. While they bounced back with an away win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, a third loss in their campaign in their previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad has left them looking to regain consistency. Personally, I always take every game as a must-win game and for me I'm pumped that the next two games are against teams that are sitting very comfortably at 1 and 2 in the table, Rahul said in a video shared by Star Sports on X ahead of their clash against PBKS. Highlighting the value of testing themselves against the strongest sides, he added, So, like I said, you want to challenge yourself against the best teams and for us as a team, I think beating RCB and Chinnaswamy gave us a lot of confidence because they're a really good team. Punjab Kings, who currently sit atop the standings, have been one of the standout teams this season, and Rahul acknowledged the challenge they pose. Punjab right now are playing some exceptional cricket. They seem unbeatable at the moment. So, that's what is challenging and that's what is exciting for us to take it on ourselves to see how we can put pressure on Punjab early in the game and see how we can get two points. The wicketkeeper-batter stressed that wins against top teams could significantly boost the squads belief and standing. That will give us tremendous confidence and then from there, we'll go on to RCB and if we can get back-to-back wins, that will obviously give us points and help us sit pretty in the table but also give us that confidence within the group that there's no doubt that we have the skill and we have the talent and we have everything that is required for us to be a champion team, he said. Rahul further underlined the importance of translating potential into results. Only when that translates to performance and victories against good teams, that's when you start feeling confident and you sort of get a little bit of arrogance which you need in today's game and in modern T20 game, you need a bit of arrogance to walk in there telling the opposition that we're too good, we feel like we can beat anybody on a given day or even if we don't have a good day, we'll still beat you. The wicketkeeper-batter stressed that wins against top teams could significantly boost the squads belief and standing. That will give us tremendous confidence and then from there, we'll go on to RCB and if we can get back-to-back wins, that will obviously give us points and help us sit pretty in the table but also give us that confidence within the group that there's no doubt that we have the skill and we have the talent and we have everything that is required for us to be a champion team, he said.

New Delhi criticises Trumps remarks as uninformed, inappropriate amid row over repost
New Delhi strongly criticised remarks attributed to US President Donald Trump after he reposted a transcript of a conservative talk show that described countries, including India, as hellholes, triggering sharp political reactions. Responding to queries, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said the government had taken note of both the comments and a subsequent clarification issued by the US Embassy. The remarks are obviously uninformed, inappropriate and in poor taste. They certainly do not reflect the reality of the India-US relationship, which has long been based on mutual respect and shared interests, he said. The Ministry of External Affairs reiterated its disapproval, stating that such remarks misrepresent the strong and longstanding ties between the two countries. The controversy stems from a social media post by Trump on Thursday in which he shared excerpts from a programme hosted by Michael Savage. The transcript referred to India, China and other nations in derogatory terms while criticising US immigration policies, including birthright citizenship. Amid the backlash, Trump sought to soften the row through a clarification conveyed by the US Embassy in New Delhi. Quoting the President, an embassy spokesperson said, India is a great country with a very good friend of mine at the top, in an apparent reference to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The episode has also drawn sharp reactions from the opposition. The Congress termed the remarks extremely insulting and anti-India, urging the Prime Minister to take up the matter with Trump and lodge a strong protest. The row comes at a time when India and the United States continue to deepen cooperation across strategic, economic and security domains, making the remarks particularly sensitive in diplomatic circles.
