Abstract

When one speaks about tools of democracy, one of the most essential elements is Freedom of Speech and Expression. A government is not only that which comprises of Ruling party, opposition party and its party workers, it also comprises of the bureaucrats, admin, clerical workers and many other employees, who remain, permanently until removed, as an essential part of the functioning of the government and the implementation of its ideologies. Employees in this case are related only in implementation and services to the government, but what if they have differences and have to express? If they are not allowed to express their opinions is it violation of their fundamental and if they are allowed, is it safe in the view of national security? This paper brings in different views for these questions in comparison with other countries and provides food for thought.
