Freedom Of Expression Doesn’t Mean Licentiousness

Freedom of expression no doubt is one of the basic human rights but as they say excess of everything is bad.  The unfettered freedom that one witnesses in the so called social media has been causing more harm than good to the raw minds of the country. Many such programs are being shown on the mini screen of mobile sets also which parents cannot see with their offspring sitting together owing to obscenity, loose talk and licentiousness in them. Many countries have passed laws forbidding use of mobile sets by persons below the age of 16 . Why our government not giving due attention to this matter is not understandable. One remembers not far ago those holly wood films screened in the cinema houses of this country which had some bold scenes were passed for screening in the cinema houses with the condition that their publicity boards will carry the words for adults only. Such was extent of care observed by the Film Censor Boards then.
