Is there efficacy of expunction in era of live telecast, digital media?

By Economic Times - 5 months ago
Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla expunged parts of Rahul Gandhi's speech, sparking debate over the impact in today's digital age. Rule 380 grants the Speaker power to remove defamatory or unparliamentary words. Expunging Gandhi's remarks, including on Hinduism, prevents their inclusion in official records and video recordings. Experts argue official records are crucial, as expunction can lead to criminal proceedings and even jail time for offenders.
