However, even as calls for repeal of the “vague” and “wide” provisions of the IT law that are “susceptible to wanton abuse” grew louder, the government silently pushed through much more controversial amendments to the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) in the Lok Sabha, making it further mirror previous draconian laws like POTA and TADA. ]]> http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=3011 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3006 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3006#comments Sat, 29 Sep 2012 17:31:24 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3006 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=3006 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3004 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3004#comments Mon, 17 Sep 2012 13:02:36 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3004 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=3004 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3000 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3000#comments Thu, 13 Sep 2012 16:04:22 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=3000 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=3000 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2998 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2998#comments Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:59:07 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2998 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=2998 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2987 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2987#comments Sun, 05 Aug 2012 17:51:09 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2987 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=2987 0 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2985 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2985#comments Mon, 02 Jul 2012 17:22:34 +0000 ed2 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=2985 http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?feed=rss2&p=2985 0
