Rewording in Circular on Sedition Provokes Anger in Maharashtra | Read
A government circular in Maharashtra that rewords court guidelines to project a harsher view on what constitutes sedition has provoked outrage in the state. The circular issued last month is based on the Bombay High Court's guidelines on booking citizens in sedition cases. "Words, signs or representations will be treated as seditious if they are against a representative of the government," it says.
