"Every Journalist Entitled To Protection": Supreme Court On Sedition

The Supreme Court today cancelled a sedition case against journalist Vinod Dua and said a 1962 order protects every journalist from such charges. Vinod Dua was charged with sedition in Himachal Pradesh over his criticism of the central government's handling of Covid, based on a complaint by a BJP leader. He was accused in an FIR of spreading fake news, causing public nuisance, printing defamatory material, and making statements amounting to public mischief.
