BBC documentary: Flouting ban in the name of activism?
- 5 years ago
Women activists on Thursday strongly opposed the blanket ban on a BBC documentary titled "India's Daughter" on the December 16, 2012 gang rape of a young woman in Delhi, arguing that the "knee-jerk" reaction constitutes an attack on freedom of expression.
The All India Democratic Women's Association (AIDWA) in a statement said it opposes the blanket ban on the documentary.
"This is a knee jerk reaction that constitutes an attack on the freedom of expression. Furthermore, the film reveals the reality of the brutality of rape without sensationalising it," it said.
