https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=189763 Section 295A of the Indian Penal Code is upheld as a valid restriction on freedom of speech and expression because it targets only deliberate and malicious insults to religion or religious beliefs made with intent to outrage religious feelings. Such aggravated conduct has a calculated tendency to disturb public order, and a law of this character falls within the phrase "in the interests of" public order under Article 19(2).
