Pornographic Ban
On August 2015, a PIL has been filed by a lawyer seeking a ban on pornography in India and to declare
section 66 67 69 71 72 75 79 80 and 85 of IT Act,2000 ultra vires. The SC then directed the centre to develop
a mechanism to block websites showing child pornography but the government had failed to block some 857
websites but this time HC of Uttarakhand had imposed a strict ban on pornographic websites but it is
interesting to note the fact that even the former CJI H.L Dattu held that the total ban on sex sites would
violate privacy and personal liberty and in the land of Kamasutra the personal liberty remains supreme.
Kamasutra is the oldest surviving Hindu text on erotic love and still, in India, sex is considered as a taboo.
Even there are many temples which depict the obscene images such as The Khajuraho Temple, The
Lingaraja Temple, The Sun Temple.
