The Film Certification Appellate Tribunal heard appeals by aggrieved filmmakers against Central Board of Film Certification orders. Its dissolution follows efforts by govt to streamline tribunals.
Hollywood blockbuster 'Joker' was at the centre of a global row last year over its depiction of violence. It was given an ‘Adult’ certificate in India.
The CBFC came under fire last week after reports claimed the censor board had asked Hollywood filmmakers to blur all alcohol in the film before its India release.
The Bombay High Court pulled up the film certification board while hearing a plea filed by Children's Film Society over a U certificate to its film "Chidiakhana".

How can the government channel appeals directly to the HIGH COURT without any capacity increment? In fact, as of today, High courts across India have 40% vacancies while the central government sits over 45 names (which it is supposed to simply forward to SC collegium), for time ranging 6 to 14 months. 10 judges who have been approved by the collegium are not being appointed for time ranging 7-19 months without giving any reason.
Does it make sense purely from a governance point of view? Shouldn’t Indians expect govt to at least do whatever little it has in its hands directly to make judicial process smooth?
Does the govt want the high courts to be perennially clogged & the common citizen always in the queue or perhaps on their knees for having even a shot at accessing justice?
The BJP and Modi have no idea on how to run a government. The court system in India is 30 years backlogged with cases and this will only delay justice further! Another wrong move by the government!
