Therefore, considering the said fact the central government during the month of January 2023, in absolute bona fide has justifiably blocked the said two-volume documentary by using its emergency powers under the law of the land," the petitioner said.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
