Freedom of speech cannot be applied selectively, says MEA over disruption during 'Emergency' screening in UK

Amid reports of Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency' movie screening being disrupted in the UK, the Ministry of External Affairs in its weekly presser on Friday said that the freedom of speech cannot be applied selectively. Randhir Jaiswal, the MEA spokesperson, said India consistently raises concerns with the UK government regarding incidents of violent protests and intimidation by anti-India elements, as he added, "Freedom of speech and expression cannot be applied selectively, and those obstructing it must be held accountable."
