What is Freedom of Expression ??

Now I don't understand, what is the actual meaning of freedom of expression and media freedom in India is...while the media can freely accuse everything , the bloggers who are just exercising their own fundamental rights in their post are being quashed because they don't have the financial support of fighting big legal battles.


So what bloggers ..who are worldwide recognized as voice of the younger generation.. are needed to exercise the tape on the mouth and chains on the hands ????


Though I am not against the Supreme court in anyway and I kno it must had his reason but my question is.. if we don't have the financial support, how we are gonna fight the lawsuits filed against us if we are not satisfied with the government's decision and express our views on public platform or may be we don't have the rights to express our views on the deeds of the government and political parties whom we elect in the largest democracy.


So is it the beginning of a new dictatorship system in India??? The first brake on freedom of expression ?


Just go through the news and you will know what I am talking about...
