He referred to section 123 of the Evidence Act and provisions of RTI Act\u00a0and said that no one can publish documents which relate to national\u00a0security as the security of the State supercedes everything.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Advocate Prashant Bhushan, one of the petitioners seeking review, opposed the submission and said that the\u00a0Rafale deal\u00a0documents, which AG says are privileged, have been published and are already in public domain. He said that provisions of\u00a0RTI Act\u00a0say public interest outweighs other things and no privilege can be claimed except for documents which pertain to intelligence agencies. He also argued that the Press Council of India Act\u00a0provides provisions for protecting sources of journalists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the case that has become a high voltage Courtroom drama, the government told the Court last week that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.scconline.com\/post\/2019\/03\/06\/documents-related-to-rafale-deal-stolen-from-defence-ministry-govt-tells-sc\/\">documents related to the Rafale fighter jet deal have been stolen from the Defence Ministry<\/a>. The Hindu newspaper had published articles on the Rafale deal that were allegedly based on the said documents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Hindu Publishing Group Chairman N Ram said those documents were published in public interest as the details of the Rafale deal were withheld or covered up. He said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou may call it stolen documents\u2026we are not concerned. We got it from confidential sources and we are committed to protecting these sources.
