While I find myself agreeing more with Justice Gautam Patel than Justice Neena Gokhale, some regulation needs to be applied to means of mass communication. The fiasco in the US where Trump, using his cult of personality, manages to promote a falsehood about the integrity of the 2021 election and by consequence of all state actors who participated in conducting it is scary. We have our own Rahul Gandhi who already tried this dirty low trick. I think everyone should have the right to call the prime minister an idiot online. Somehow, though we need to draw the line between the gravities of the statements : “The PM is an idiot” and “The election was stolen”. I don’t think that government alone should draw the line. This power could probably be exercised by civil servants, juries or the president. None of it is safe but giving such power to governments alone makes it possible for them to stifle inconvenient ro un-provable truths. At the very least, governments should have to explain why they decide a statement to be false and lay it before the public; not only identify it.
