ACTION AGAINST POLICE OFFICERS USING SECTION 66 A OF THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ACT

Supreme Court issued notice to the Central Government regarding continued use of section 66A of The Information Technology Act even after it is scrapped by the Supreme Court in case of Shreya Singhal vs Union of India in 2015

In the petition submitted by the PUCL it is submitted that the police is still using the scrapped section of I T Act.

The Supreme Court took the matter seriously and asserted that the concerned official will be arrested if the order of Court scrapping the section 66 A of I T  Act, is violated.
