Freedom of Speech and Expression vs Women’s Right to Dignity

Constitution of India guarantees to every citizen fundamental right to freedom of speech and expression but some beneficiaries of this right have been misusing them for long and it’s about time something shall be done about them. They are infringing women’s basic right to dignity under the garb of pushing their content as being constitutionally protected. The two of the biggest mis-users of this right are Ullu and AltBalaji. There are others that push the boundaries even further but in reality they end up pushing it too far and hence get caught. Whereas these two do it very efficiently and thus evade action. The gross violation of women’s right to basic dignity committed by them shall be discussed in detail in this paper.
