The court allowed amending his plea.Meanwhile, the court directed the petitioner Msh Kashyap not be moved from Central Jail Madurai till further orders and listed the matter for further hearing on April 28.These directions came after Senior Advocate Siddhartha Dave urged the court not to drag him from one place to another by production warrants.Senior Advocate Siddhartha Dave, appearing for Msh Kashyap, informed the top court that six FIRs have been registered against his client in Tamil Nadu and three FIRs in Bihar.He also apprised the court that NSA has been invoked against Msh Kashyap by Tamil Nadu police.Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for Tamil Nadu Government, said, "Msh Kashyap has circulated fake news and incident in which FIRs have been registered are of separate nature."One of the lawyers appearing for the Bihar Government said, "Msh Kashyap is a habitual offender and prior to the incident eight separate FIRs were registered against him in Bihar."Msh Kashyap was represented by lawyers Aditya Singh Deshwal, Abhijeet and Ridam Arora.Kashyap's counsels apprised the court earlier that National Security Act has been imposed against his client.Msh Kashyap, a Bihar-based journalist said, "Many false FIRs were registered against him in Bihar and Tamil Nadu at the behest of the present ruling government."Kashyap sought interim bail and clubbing of all cases in one place.He said, "Cases against him were filed because he has raised the issue of violence against the Bihar-based migrant labourers in Tamil Nadu on social media."The YouTuber, who was caught allegedly circulating false and misleading information about purported attacks on migrant labourers working in Tamil Nadu was arrested from Bettiah in Bihar on March 18.According to the Bihar Police, Kashyap surrendered at Jagdishpur police station in Bettiah while the Bihar Police and Economic Offence Unit (EOU) were in the process of attaching his house.Kashyap was wanted by Bihar Police and Tamil Nadu Police in a fake news matter of labourers issue in the southern state, according to an official statement issued by the EOU of Bihar Police.Last month, a team from Bihar led by IAS officer Balamurugan visited Tamil Nadu to take stock of the matter.
