A journalist calls unscientific content “shit” and faces judicial threats; hate speech offenders face years of judicial “monitoring” with little consequence. What does this asymmetry say about constitutional priorities?
Another element lost in the judge’s remark was the genre of Pande’s show: satire. Satire is not a form of speech that approaches power with bent knees. It is designed to puncture pretence and make visible what “polite” language conceals. Satire stands among the most insulated forms of free expression in a constitutional order. It ought not to seek prior permission and should be at no mercy of subsequent forgiveness.
The judge’s treatment of satire as though it were a violation of his courtroom’s etiquette reveals a deep crack in free speech protections, signalling lower tolerance for dissenting expression within courts. Not that any language can be used anywhere, but that is precisely why genre matters. To erase this distinction is to collapse all kinds of speech into a single register of permissible politeness. Satire always was, is, and will be, the safest bastion of free speech and ought to be fully protected by judicial restraint in democracies with mature judiciaries.
@MnshaP, exercising her fullest latitude of satirical speech in service of scientific temper, was met with judicial threats of professional ruin, but saved not by institutional self-correction but by public outcry.
But consider this. The Supreme Court had issued guidelines and held that if the police failed to comply with them, including suo-motu registration of FIRs in ACTUAL hate speech cases, it would invite contempt action. That promise, however, proved fleeting.
At least nine contempt petitions alleging wholesale non-compliance were filed, tagged, and ultimately left unaddressed as benches changed and urgency dissipated. What now follows before Justice Vikram Nath’s bench is a familiar judicial retreat. His bench is closing the Hate Speech cases. The practical effect is no coordinated enforcement, no consequences for repeat offenders, and no interruption to an ecosystem of industrial-scale hate speech that has grown more sophisticated.

As three transgender doctors seek the rights promised in 2014, the Supreme Court must decide whether its words were a mandate or a mirage.
The Court’s 2014 NALSA judgment—a constitutional beacon of hope—had tried to fill the policy vacuum when it comes to transgender rights. Among other important directions, it asked governments to treat the transgender community as socially and educationally backward and extend “all kinds of reservation” (affirmative action) in education and public employment.
11 years on, a majority of the states have not implemented this direction. Karnataka led the way by being the first state in 2021 to provide a 1% horizontal reservation to transgender persons across its civil service jobs. @BhattRohin, a queer activist and SC advocate, puts it more bluntly: “The idea that a transgender person may make it to civil services or postgraduate education is unpalatable to the powers-that-be. It challenges the stereotypical notion that transgender persons must either beg or engage in sex work to survive.”
Those criticising or even trolling reservation often reduce it to arithmetic—a missed seat, a lost mark, etc. But what they overlook in doing so is the architecture of exclusion that has shaped this inequity. They tend to forget or ignore the fact that access to elite coaching centres, mentorship, housing near such institutes, and the overall support is still a distant reality for most marginalised communities. The struggle for that one seat is not fought on equal terrain.
Often, the violence against queer individuals is state-enabled. For instance, Maharashtra has not implemented horizontal reservation that could’ve helped uplift the trans community. Instead, state authorities criminalised begging by transgender persons in Pune and Nagpur. There is something deeply unsettling about a state that demands dignity while refusing to create the conditions for it. It is not inequality that offends the state, but its visibility.
Government actions such as this add legal invisibility to the LGBTQIA+ community’s lives and only serves to amplify personal danger.
Now, once again, the burden falls on the Supreme Court to enforce what it once pronounced. The plea for horizontal reservations in postgraduate medical education programmes by aspiring trans doctors is a test of the Supreme Court’s ability to follow through. The Court is now, once again, called upon to revisit its own legacy—and decide whether its words should result in actual substantive change.
