BJP leader Subramanian Swamy has moved the Supreme Court challenging certain provisions in the IPC relating to hate speech and seeking a declaration that they are unconstitutional as they violated freedom of speech and expression. A vacation of bench of Justices A.K. Sikri and U.U. Lalit directed the matter to be listed before another bench as Justice Lalit recused from hearing the writ petition.
