SC warns cartoonist over offensive posts, grants him protection
The Supreme Court on Tuesday gave protection from coercive action to Indore-based cartoonist Hemant Malviya — accused of sharing alleged objectionable cartoons of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and RSS workers on social media — even as it cautioned him against irresponsible posts.
“Log kisi ko bhi, kuch bhi keh dete hain (people say anything to anyone),” a Bench of Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia and Justice Aravind Kumar told Malviya.
