The Internet in India is governed by the IT Act. But the powers this law gives the state need to be balanced with due process and adequate safeguards. Rohan Seth and Prateek Waghre are joined by Gopal Jain, a Supreme Court advocate and advisor to the Esya Centre to talk about reforming the IT Act in an increasingly networked society.
This episode was produced in association with the Takshashila Institution. It was first broadcast on the Indus Vox Media (IVM) Podcast Network.
Read Gopal Jain's op-ed titled, Internet has its own basic structure that must be kept intact.
