Right to dissent is the very essence of freedom of speech and expression mentioned under the Constitution of India and its abrogation without just cause must be regulated. Time and again the Indian courts have expressed their opinion on law of sedition that it should be repealed entirely due to repeated misuse, however the reality remains that sedition not only persists in our legal system, but its application is also growing day by day. This article attempts to study the jurisprudence that has been developed in India around law of sedition through several judgments given by the Indian courts, to understand its trajectory of interpretation since colonised India to democratic India. A comparative analysis of the status of sedition law has been made to understand why some countries either repealed or revised this law in their respective jurisdictions and why India must follow similar footsteps. |
