Supreme Court hears the Ranveer Allahabadia case:
Adv Prashant Bhushan: I appear for a disabled professor. This is a very important issue on free speech and how such stakeholders need to be taken into confidence while having consultations
SG Tushar Mehta: Right now we are not dealing with obscenity. But with perversity. Something needs to be done on user generated content. One can have his own @YouTube channel and....we cannot do everything and anything under the garb of free expression
CJI Surya Kant: It is strange that I create my own channel and keep doing things without being accountable. Yes free speech has to be protected ..suppose there is a program with adult content.. there can be warning in advance with parental control.
AG R Venkataramani: Ministry of Information and Broadcasting is proposing to have a meeting. They will do everything possible to have a public consultation
CJI: if some provisions need to be incorporated or something needs amendment
SG: yea being considered. I had a word with the minister.
