Scrap sedition law, demands Kapil Sibal

Senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal has demanded that the sedition law under Section 124 A of the IPC be scraped as those in power are "manipulating" it. He further called the law a colonial hangover.

"Real sedition is when those in power manipulate institutions, misuse the law, breach peace and security by inciting violence. Punish them in 2019," Sibal said on Twitter. He also called for a change in the government to save the country.
