SC: " Freedom of Speech and Expression is not an absolute Right "
As per a recently published report of Economic Times, the Division Bench of the Hon. Supreme Court of India has observed, while dealing with a dispute between Sahara Group and market regulator SEBI that " Freedom of Speech and Expression is not an absolute right under the Constitution and the journalists should understand the 'lakshman rekha' so that they do not cross the line of contempt." The court, however, refrained from framing broad guidelines for reporting of sub-judice court matters, saying it cannot be done "across the board."
