Abstract | For Indian cyber law, regulating religious hate speech on social media while maintaining freedom of speech is a difficult task. The Indian Constitution ensures the right to free expression along with reasonable limitations, such as those pertaining to morality, decency, public order, defamation, and incitement to crime. This essay looks at how Indian courts have handled this matter, emphasizing the conflict between preserving the right to free speech and preventing hate speech based on religion. The research entails the status of freedom of speech, the problem of hate speech and their dichotomy and legal nexus having in consideration, the distinct background of India's diverse culture and how it causes citizens to interpret the law in a way that is very context-sensitive. And most importantly the legal framework which combats the imbalance , giving prominence to intermediary liability. As a thought experiment, we also look at the same issue from the point of view of the Government with its need to protect and uphold the country’s standing in the world, as well as the independent press/journalists who provide a fine example of using freedom of speech to check and balance the other players – Government’s branches, Culture, and the Private industry’s technological acceleration of the ability to carry speech farther and wider than traditional communication media. |
