The right to freedom of speech and expression under Art.19(1)(a) of the Constitution, one of the three stars in the ‘Golden Triangle’ of the Constitution, occupies a climacteric position in the Indian constitutional discourse.

Based on this decision, the article seeks to analyse the possibility and the pertinence of such a nexus.
