The Kerala High Court ruled that criticising the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund is part of free speech, quashing charges against a man for his Facebook post. Justice VG Arun said mere criticism of the government cannot attract criminal action unless it incites public disorder.
The Kerala High Court ruled in favor of individuals changing their religion and updating their school certificates accordingly. Emphasizing the right to religious freedom, the court stated that the absence of specific legal provisions should not hinder the correction process. Following a petition from Hindu converts to Christianity, the court directed the authorities to update their certificates.
