3 STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS Free speech is the foundation value of modern democracies. While criminal defamation was incorporated in the Indian Penal Code back in 1860, it was never reviewed by the legislature. The argument that these colonial-era criminal defamation provisions are an unreasonable restriction on the constitutionally guaranteed right to freedom of speech and expression bears merit. Indeed a joint declaration by the United Nations Special Rapporteur and other international bodies hold the view that criminal defamation is an unjustifiable restriction. In a recent judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, the Bench in its decision observed that in the "changing climate of growing democracy, it is not permissible to keep alive such a restriction". However it leaves it to the wisdom of the legislature whether or not "to abolish criminality of defamation in the obtaining social climate". This Bill seeks to amend section 499 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 to allow for safeguards against unrestrained legal action for defamation. The Bill also mandates that only the offended party can file a defamation complaint, along with other restrictions such as the claim has to be valid only within the year of publication of defamatory article; and that any judgment upon the merits of case disallows further claims by the same parties in any other jurisdiction. Most importantly, this Bill also provides for fine as the only punishment instead of imprisonment or both. Therefore, it is prudent that we review such colonial-era provisions of the Indian Penal Code, Hence, this Bill. NEW DELHI; July 1, BAIJAYANT PANDA 3
