Why Do We Still Need Section 124A Of IPC?: SC Asks Attorney General
Hoping to strike down section 124A of IPC, Chief Justice of India N.V.Ramana led a bench of judges and argued with Attorney General "KK Venugopal" about how section 124A has been grossly misused. He questioned the Attorney General as to why section 124A is needed even after 75 years of independence. However, despite highlighting the Chilling effect of the sedition law, AG Venugopal overruled Ramana's request.
