A Delhi court has issued an injunction preventing the sale or distribution of a book about Yes Bank founder and former MD Rana Kapoor, following a defamation suit filed by Kapoor. The book, titled ‘Yes Man: The Untold Story of Rana Kapoor’ by journalist Pavan C. Lall, was released in December 2020.
The injunction will remain in effect until the court resolves Kapoor’s lawsuit against the author and publisher.
Additionally, the court ordered the removal of related news articles from a digital news platform.
On July 10, district judge Naresh Kumar Laka of Tis Hazari Court noted that Kapoor had, on the surface, demonstrated that the book damages his reputation and is not entirely based on facts.
“Balance of convenience will lie in favour of the plaintiff (Kapoor) because reputation of the plaintiff, once defamed in eyes of the reader, cannot be reversed, if he finally succeeds in the present case…” the court said.
