43:19Now PlayingOn The Last Word with Tanvi Shukla tonight, The Supreme Court's judgement on the Mamata Banerjee meme controversy has become the biggest talking point this election season. It is a black day for those who rely on humour, satire and caricature to lampoon public figures. Instead of punishing the intolerance of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee who successfully prosecuted a rival BJP's youth leader Priyanka Sharma jailed for retweeting a satirical meme, the Supreme Court has asked the hapless victim to apologise as a precondition for her release on bail. The observations of the Supreme Court have been summed up. The Apex court has said, 'Your freedom of speech ends where other person's right begins'. But many are questioning the Supreme Court's judgement, 'Do rights depend on how the other person perceives it?' Does one need to be apologetic even for political Satire? Listen in!
