Scrapping of section 66A is 'right and appropriate': Manish Tiwari

Manish Tewari, Minister of Information and Broadcasting, says that the Supreme court has done the right and appropriate thing thing by striking down Section 66A. “It had become an instrument of oppression, It had put too much of power in the law enforcement authorities. Mere law enforcement or knee jerk reactions, as was the implementation of section 66A cannot be a solution to curb freedom of speech,” he said.
