#AtheistRepublic 

The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

Atheist Republic’s ongoing legal battle over “blasphemous” tweets recently made headlines in India. In the latest chapter of the saga, on March 28th, the Delhi High Court asked Twitter why it had not banned accounts that posted objectionable content against a Hindu goddess. This referred to a complaint filed last year against Twitter which targeted several posts by Atheist Republic that contained “hurtful” images of the Hindu Goddess Kali. In this latest hearing the petitioner also further sought to ban Atheist Republic’s Twitter account in total. Both judges remarked that the issue is about how people feel about the sensitive content. “If these kinds of things were done in relation to another religion, you would be much more careful, more sensitive,” the judges said. 
 
Sidharth Luthra, Twitter’s senior counsel who appeared during the hearing, explained that Twitter “cannot block any individual.” Twitter cannot take down content without a court order, Luthra added. “If this is the logic, then why have you blocked Mr. Trump,” the court countered. The court also challenged Twitter to present their policy behind Trump’s suspension from Twitter, claiming that they should have done the same with the Atheist Republic. 

Atheist Republic’s lawyers intervened and argued that the petitioner’s original wish to have the “offending” tweets removed has been fulfilled as they were now blocked to Indian users, so the court should not go forward with banning the Twitter account in total. They also argued that Atheist Republic must be made a party to the proceedings if coercive action will be taken against the organization, and that any blocking by either Twitter or the government of India should only occur after Atheist Republic has been heard in court. Their submissions were taken into account and the intervention was allowed. The court also ordered Atheist Republic to submit an affidavit, within two weeks, detailing its status, location, presence of any place of business, and authorized representatives in India. The matter will be heard in court again on Sept. 6, 2022.
