IT Act Still In Operation; SC Issues Notice To Stop Its Usage
The Supreme Court was shocked after knowing that people are still booked under Section 66A of the Information Technology Act, despite it being knocked down and termed as illegal six years ago. The apex court has issued notice to all the states, union territories, and registrar generals of all HCs for using the IT Act of 2000. Reportedly, even after being termed as unconstitutional, there were around 1,307 cases under it.
