Section 124A of the Indian Penal Code

 * ... that during its 2019 election campaign, the Indian National Congress promised to abolish the sedition law, although a Congress government had charged 9,000 people for sedition in 2012–2013? Source 1: "In its manifesto released on Tuesday, Congress has promised to omit the Indian Penal Code Section 124A.", Source 2: "In 2012 and 2013, an astonishing number of 23,000 men and women who protested against a nuclear power plant in Tamil Nadu were held for "waging war against the state" and sedition - 9,000 of them for sedition alone."

 * Symbol confirmed.svg new, properly written (I copyedited for grammatical errors or POV language); Earwig's suggest plagiarism, but this relates to just one portion of the text where the law is quoted verbatim (as it should). Hook verified (also tweaked for clarification and flow) and quite interesting. QPQ done. Dahn (talk) 07:25, 8 July 2019 (UTC) |}}
