Freedom of Speech

What Constitution says:
The Constitution of India contains the right to freedom, given in articles 19, 20, 21 and 22, with the view of guaranteeing individual rights that were considered vital by the framers of the constitution. The right to freedom in Article 19 guarantees six freedoms. Freedom of speech and expression is one of those.
Freedom of speech and expression, which enable an individual to participate in public activities.
****************
Speech is a most widely used form of communication. It may be face to face, tele calling or telecasting. We speak to express our feelings. We speak to motivate, we speak to provoke. Speech can win a battle, Speech can break a relation. Its not only our fundamental right. It’s our fundamental power. And as power comes along with a responsibility, we need to be more careful while using it. In pre independence era, freedom fighters used to deliver speeches which then created a spirit in people to fight against British Empire. Excerpts from those speeches have become inspirational quotes now. Same is in case of science, politics and socialism. We are missing prosperity of that kind of wisdom these days. Our bad luck is forcing us to chew cheap or illogical statements of Rakhi Sawant or Arundhati Roy.   

These days I have observed only Raj Thackrey as a capable speaker in politics. Rahul Gandhi  is too immature both in his experience and speaking skills. I have watched videos of All time great motivator Nepolian Hill. He was just incredible with his words  and voice. 

The concept of Freedom of speech is closely linked with political concept of “Democracy”. Democracy doesn’t mean license to do whatever we want to do, whenever and wherever.  Alexander Meiklejohn argues that the concept of democracy is that of self-government by the people.

The Fundamental Rights are defined as basic human freedoms which every Indian citizen has the right to enjoy for a proper and harmonious development of personality. These rights universally apply to all citizens, irrespective of race, place of birth, religion, caste, creed, color or Gender. They are enforceable by the courts, subject to certain restrictions. Senseless public figures, please, pay attention. Right to speech should mean Right Speech. May God gift us many capable speakers to satisfy our hunger of words of wisdom. Amen!

Declaration

Dear fellows,
Purpose of this blog is mainly to use technology as a weapon against social evils. 

I am looking forward to connect Indians for the next social revolution. As citizens of free India, We have some basic rights as well as some basic responsibilities. Unfortunately, while copying western culture many of us have forgot these duties. 

The duties are usual daily activities which are to be performed in a disciplined manner. We don't need to control ourselves, We just need to be disciplined in our social behavior.

We will be discussing all these thing over the time and implementing in real time. 

I assure you, I will be sharp and blunt while expressing. Try to keep things as short and crisp as possible.

Regards, 
Ombudsman.
