Good to see that you have started a blog and at least are raising your voice against draconian legislation that our government is proposing or already has in place.
Current government in Delhi (i.e. UPA) is corrupt, so like every corrupt government in the world, they want to muscle the common individuals into silence. Therefore these current spate of laws designed to control the freedom of speech on the internet. Anyone who has heard Niira Radia tapes on the website of Outlook magazine is aware that mainstream media in our country is already owned by Congress party. It is the common citizen that they are afraid of and they want to make sure that common citizens stay silent so that this government can continue its loot without any hindrance.
