Govt is Right- Ban Hate- mongers
by M.Akhtar on Jul 20, 2006 12:24 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Government is right in banning the webs who are spreading the culture of hate and animosity. If you visit the sites which have been banned you will find they spew venom against perticular community, this leads to counter venom and up in Mumbai like episode.Freedom of press is not absolute it has to impose self restraints, If they are not self restraining then govt. must intervene. Similar yardstick be applicable for political parties in India.

Dear Mr. Akthar,

I agree with your views on blocking the sites which throw venom towards a particular community. This should never happens since no community spreads terrorism but people.

On the same lines, may I please know your views on scrapping of POTA by this government?

Regards,

Ashish
