Section 124A IPC has not been struck down as unconstitutional, but the Supreme Court has limited its scope to prevent misuse and protect free speech under Article 19(1)(a). It is currently under reconsideration, and its future validity depends on legislative and judicial action. For further legal assistance, contact us on our helpline.
