NUMBERS 57
This number has become synonymous to ambiguity and a threat to people's free speech. According to the legal experts, Section 57 of the information and communication technology (ICT) act-2006 is a threat to people's right to freedom of expression and speech. They believe the vague narrative of this section is misleading and is allowing its misuse against newsmen and social media users. The debate over section 57 is nothing new, however following the arrest of journalist Prabir Sikdar the section's controversy again comes into limelight.
