Comedian Kunal Kamra moves Bombay HC against Sahyog portal, calls it assault on free speech

Stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra has moved the Bombay High Court against the government’s ‘Sahyog’ portal, calling it an “unconstitutional and unreasonable” assault on freedom of speech, as it allows officials to take down social media content.

The comedian, in his petition filed on Wednesday, has primarily challenged the IT rules, which were amended in October 2025, along with the Sahyog portal.
