Dont mix freedom of speech with unfair trade practices. Running of a media channel and the websites are business and not freedom of speech. If the site creats dissatisfaction or insult, it should be banned.

Sir, so is politics, a business...and destroying property of cyber cafes and using illegal force to deny people not indulging in slander, surpasses dissatisfaction and insult. It is a crime. Further to have Sainik infiltrators in the police watching the fun is an arrogant joke on impotence of the government of the day. I don't advocate the mischievious slandering Chatrapathi Shivaji, but lawless mob reaction by any party has to be strongly condemned if we call ourselves civilised and further a strong call also has to be made to book the culprits, irrespective of the party in question and an enquiry held in how the police were bystanders in the episode.
