Abstract

There are numerous laws that control the presentation of media in India. Laws identified with the broad communications have been there since the earliest reference point. In the season of the British Raj, numerous laws identified with the Press were established. In the post-Independence time, the different Governments have ordered a lot more media related laws. A portion of these media related laws are: First Press Regulations, Gagging Act, Indian Press Act, Constitutional Provisions in regards to Press Freedom, Official Secrets Act, Press Council of India Act. A portion of these laws are straightforwardly identified with broad communications. A portion of these are just by implication identified with the broad communications. The majority of these laws are as yet pervasive. Be that as it may, a couple of these laws have been abrogated. A few laws have been changed to suit the evolving times. We will examine about the greater part of these laws in this exercise.
