The record straight by providing the true and correct facts, which, regrettably, we did not do. Had we done so neither Article 1 nor Article 2 would have been published.
We have, therefore, agreed to publish this unconditional apology along with the following Statement of Factual Corrections with respect to the Articles.
Article 1 and Article 2 refer to an alleged public interest litigation by one Pankaj Phadnis and contained brazenly false, unsubstantiated and incorrect statements.
The correct fact is that the alleged public interest litigation (PIL) filed by Mr Phadnis (dismissed by High Court on December 12, 2024) does not contain any of the allegations as asserted in both the Articles. Both the Articles were, therefore, clearly erroneous.
