Ashwini Vaishnav said- strict law should be made to stop obscene content
Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Ashwini Vaishnav spoke of making a strict law to prevent obscene content on social media. Vaishnav said- the culture of the countries from which such material comes is totally different from ours. Parliamentary Standing Committee needs to look into this subject and make the law stricter to prevent obscene content.
He said that in the age of social media, editorial checking is over. Earlier whatever was printed from the press was checked for truth or falsity and then brought before the media.
He said that due to the loss of editorial checking, today social media has become a huge medium of press freedom on the one hand, but on the other hand it is an unregulated expression in which many types of indecent content are posted. For this the existing law needs to be made more stringent. This also requires consensus.
