    INDIAN INSTANCES OF REGULATION OF FREE-SPEECH 2011 1. Political Cartoonist©s website blocked, followed by his arrest nine months later. Month: 27 December 2011 Website: www.cartoonsagainstcorruption.com Reason: Complaint by private entity ± objectionable pictures and texts related to the flag and emblem of India. The website at www.cartoonsagainstcorruption.com was a cartoon based campaign started by a 25 year old political cartoonist, Aseem Trivedi, to support the nation-wide anti-corruption movement in India started by Anna Hazare in 20111. Having published his cartoons in several newspapers, Trivedi, who hails from Kanpur, had launched the website in October 2011 to reach a wider audience. In December 2011 Trivedi©s banners had received a lot of media attention at the time of Anna Hazare©s three-day fast at Mumbai. Consequently, on the second day of the campaign, Trivedi©s website, which features anti-corruption cartoons, had become inaccessible and upon inquiry from the web-site©s host (Big Rock) it was revealed to him that the portal had been suspended following a complaint from the Mumbai Police. The complaint that resulted in suspension of the website was made by a Mumbai- based lawyer, R.P. Pandey2, who alleged that several of the cartoons violated provisions of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 and the State Emblem of India (Prohibition of Improper Use) Act 2005.3 The Aftermath & ©Save Your Voice© Campaign 4: Following his web-site©s ban, Trivedi initiated a blog on Blogger, a Google-based service, where he continued to voice his opinions5. Thereafter a movement against censorship in India called the ©Save Your Voice© campaign was initiated by Trivedi along with journalist Alok Dixit.
