govt informed bench headed by Justice Abhay Oka of Bombay High Court, it had come out with a new circular restraining from briefing Media on names: please help with copy of Govt circular & final Court order. Any similar order by Central Govt?

We are not in position to help you in this regard as this Forum does not provide documents.

Government circulars on issues like this are generally not available online. Moreover, with the details available, it was not possible to get the High Court order online. You may have to contact the High Court and/or the concerned Government. Contact the State Government (Home Department) or DGP of State through RTI.

Police is a state subject, so generally speaking, circulars on such issues would be issued by the states concerned.
