MUMBAI: The state government s decision to drop sedition charges against Kanpur based cartoonist Aseem Trivedi has not gone well with few outfits in Maharashtra, at least it seems so. The Satyashodhak OBC Parishad has openly condemned the home department's decision to drop sedition charges against the controversial cartoonist.
Government is trying to shield those indulged in defaming the nation, Hanumant Upre, president of the Parishad said in a release issued by his office. No sympathy should be shown who have no respect for the constitution, the release added.
The state government on October 12, informed the Bombay High Court about its plan to drop sedition charges against Trivedi. Following advise from the Advocate General (AG) to drop the charges, the decision to withdraw sedition charges was taken by the home department.
The cartoonist was arrested in September for dishonouring national symbols, emblem and parliament. The police slapped the cartoonist with the sedition charges. But large section of the society, especially youths and the India Against Corruption (IAC) activist protested the government s decision, home minister R R Patil ordered his officials to review the case and sought legal opinion on whether the sedition charges should be maintained or withdrawn.
