Answers
Answer:Right of freedom of speech and expression is violated.
Answer:
The director's right to freedom of expression and freedom of speech is violated.
Explanation:
In India and world over, every human being is entitled to certain fundamental or basic human rights by law.
The fundamental rights describe the civil and basic liberties that every citizen, regardless of race, colour, religion, caste, place of birth or gender is entitled to.
These fundamental rights are protected from government interference and exploitation.
However, this should be done without infringing on other peoples right.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 8 fundamental rights of every Indian citizen are as follows:
- Right to equality
- Right to freedom
- Right against exploitation
- Right to freedom of religion
- Cultural and Educational Right
- Right to constitutional remedies
- Right to vote ( 2002)
- Right to privacy (2017)
The first six were the original rights up until 2002 when 1 more right was added and another in 2017.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Right to freedom includes:
The right to freedom of speech and expression, right to settle anywhere in India, right to assemble peacefully, freedom of movement, freedom of forming associations and unions and the freedom of practising any profession.
In this case, the director is being denied is fundamental right of freedom of speech and expression.
The freedom of speech allows individuals to articulate themselves without fear of legal sanctions or retaliation.
The director is therefore within his/her constitutional rights to criticise the government.
