Advocate Prashant Bhushan has filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court seeking to quash the FIR registered against him by Gujarat police alleging hurting of religious sentiments.
A Bench of Justices Ashok Bhushan and Sanjiv Khanna begins hearing.
Senior Advocate Dushyant Dave is making submissions.
FIR was registered against him in Gujarat’s Rajkot by a retired Army personnel Jaydev Joshi for “hurting Hindu religious sentiments” by using objectionable language against #Ramayana and #Mahabharata being shown on DD.
"Let notice be issued. No coercive action to be taken till next date of hearing" - Bench
Justice Bhushan to Senior Advocate Dushyant Dave: "Mr Dave, anybody can watch anything on TV. How can you say people cannot watch this and that ?"
Dave: "No we are not on people watching something on TV. But we are on FIR"
