Understanding Hate Speech in India

Today, i wanted to report a hate speech. And realised that there is no clear way of doing it.


So, in case you want to report hate speech, the first thing is to know the laws related to hate speech in India.


I did not find anything in particular that would allow me to report hate speech, am sharing what I did find:


Law Commission of India's Report on Hate Speech - a fairly comprehensive report


This article has awesome details in a succinct format:

And this is the most comprehensive coverage yet:

For now, I have decided to collect more evidence of the work of this gentleman.
