⚖️ Madras High Court Quashes SHRC Order in Lois Sofia Case
The Madras High Court has set aside the Tamil Nadu State Human Rights Commission’s order directing the State Government to pay ₹2 lakh compensation to Lois Sofia in the 2018 airport slogan case.
The Court held that the SHRC failed to properly establish a human rights violation and that compensation cannot be awarded without clear proof of illegal detention or abuse of power.
