Because of this woman, I spent two years in jail simply for posting a meme. And now, she has the audacity to preach about freedom of speech. She clearly needs a lesson in Articles 14, 19, and 21 of the Indian Constitution. When she was Chief Minister, students, social media users, vloggers, and YouTubers were sent to jail for daring to speak out. Now that the people of West Bengal have rejected her, she suddenly wants to lecture everyone about democracy and freedom of speech. The hypocrisy is unbelievable.
The freedom of speech and expression is being taken away from lakhs of citizens across the country.
This BJP government does not care about Article 14, Article 19 and Article 21 of our great Constitution. This government wants to deprive all citizens, including elected representatives, of their right to express themselves freely.
We extend our support to students, youth, social media users, vloggers, YouTubers, and independent digital platforms. We demand that they must be allowed to express themselves freely. Full strength to them as we, all together, fight this dangerous trend of censorship.
Instead of indulging in atrocities against citizens on social media, this government should focus on taking care of the North East along with ensuring the safety and security of all people across the country.
