Stopping Misuse of UAPA Against Honest Journalists

0
21

The severe misuse of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act against the press remains a critical threat to journalistic power. Reports highlight how these broad, vaguely worded laws are frequently utilized to incarcerate reporters for simply doing their jobs, creating a deeply chilling effect across smaller Indian towns. The process itself becomes the punishment.

Bharat Media Association continuously advocates for strict judicial oversight on UAPA applications, fighting to restore the fundamental power of journalists to investigate without facing draconian, non-bailable terrorism charges.
