What if the government could shut down an app used by millions overnight? In this video, Chethan N breaks down the controversial Telegram ban using one of the most important laws for UPSC aspirants — Section 69A of the IT Act.

We explore how the government uses emergency powers for cyber security, and whether such actions violate fundamental rights like free speech under Article 19. Through key Supreme Court judgments like the Anuradha Bhasin case and the striking down of Section 66A, this session helps you understand the constitutional balance between security and liberty.

This topic is extremely important for UPSC Prelims, Mains (GS2), and Essay, especially in areas like governance, fundamental rights, cyber security, and digital regulation.

If you want to understand how laws, technology, and democracy intersect in India, this session is a must-watch.
