Joke Vs Sentiment: Supreme Court Draws LoC - Line Of Comedy?
The Supreme Court has sparked a debate with its ruling against comedians like Samay Raina, ordering apologies for jokes mocking the disabled. Declaring, "Freedom of speech can't apply just like that on commercial speech," the court prioritized dignity under Article 21 over free expression under Article 19. It's pushing for social media guidelines to curb offensive commercial content.
Is this a vital step to protect vulnerable communities from harmful humor, or does it threaten to chill creative freedom in India's diverse society?
