Press Statement

 

 

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:

 

 

Welcome Judgment on Sec. 66A

 

 

The judgment of the Supreme Court striking down Section 66A of the IT Act
has come out in defence of civil liberties and fundamental rights of
citizens.

 

The draconian provision of 66A was used to arrest people who express
dissenting views against the government and the State and to suppress
criticism of those in power.

 

The Polit Bureau welcomes this landmark judgment.
