Why the law on sedition needs to be scrapped

'The best remedy would be to scrap Section 124-A of the IPC, a colonial vestige, altogether.''However, if legislators don't want to do so, they can do two things.''They can formally amend Section 124-A to bring it in line with what the Supreme Court has said about sedition.''The words which stand on the statute book today were inserted in 1898.''The Supreme Court's words are not a part of Section 124-A.'
