Madras HC suggests 2-week social media detox to Sanatan activist over foul language

The Madras High Court on November 6 imposed a ₹2,000 fine and recommended a two-week detox from social media platforms to a man claiming to be a Santan Dharma activist.

The court was hearing a plea by an industrialist who alleged that the activist made disparaging remarks against him despite a restraint order by the court.

The high court said that a person who claims to be a 'rakshak' of Santana Dharma should not use unsavoury words such as Vesi.

“A person who claims to be a rakshak of Santana Dharma should not use unsavoury words such as Vesi, which refers to sex workers, on social media platforms. We cannot but object to the use of the word Vesi for it admittedly refers to sex workers. Use of such unpalatable words cannot be encouraged,” the court said as per Bar and Bench.
