|Millennium Post Delhi
Currently, Section 356 of the BNS treats defamation as a criminal offence

The Supreme Court on Monday indicated its inclination towards decriminalising defamation while hearing a case against online news portal ‘The Wire, filed by Amita Singh, a retired professor from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU).
A bench comprising Justice M M Sundresh and Justice Satish Chandra Sharma issued notice to Singh in response to a petition submitted by the Foundation for Independent Journalism, which operates the news portal. “I think the time has come to decriminalise all this. How long will you go on dragging this?” the bench observed during the proceedings.
