| 520 | |a The lawsuit filed against Wendy Doniger’s The Hindus: An Alternative History under section 295A of the Indian Penal Code prompted a controversy about free speech. Section 295A punishes speech that offends the religious feelings of a group of Indian citizens. According to one view, rigorous application of laws like 295A is justified, because peaceful coexistence in a plural society like India depends on great restraint in discussing religion. The history of section 295A and its antecedents shows that contrary to expectations, such laws have not functioned to prevent violence. Instead, they have encouraged violent display, feeding the contemporary politics of religious sentiment. | ||
