ENTERTAINMENT
INDUSTRY:Favour

We all know about the Indian culture and customs,

But day by day it is degrading due to the many
reason. One main reason behind this is cinema also.
The movie maker puts everything in the movie to
make it interesting, like vulgar scene, abusing
language etc. These types of things are highly
responsible in degrading the culture of our society.
So the censor board should always take a step in
removing these types of things from the movie.
Now a days very rare films are there which we can
watch with our family. So censor board should filter
the film very fairly so that it will not affect our
society.

 There are many scenes in the movies which are

not good or we can say that that are affected
badly on our youth or children. No doubt the
Indian film industry gives us large number of
good films. It give us motivational movies,
comedy movies, family movies, action movies
etc. But now we see that there are many movies
which include some evil scenes which badly
affected the children's and sometime as a result
of that type of movie wrong consequences come
out.
From conclusion I only want to say that there is a
need of censorship board to stop releasing of
movies which include bad scenes and some kind
of vulgarity

INDUSTRY:Against
Censorship in India involves the suppression of speech or

other public communication, raises issues offreedom of

speech, which is nominally protected by the Indian
constitution.
TheConstitution of Indiaguaranteesfreedom of
expressionbut placescertain restrictionson content, with
a view towards maintaining communal and religious
harmony, given the history of communal tension in the
nation.
According to the Information Technology Rules 2011,
objectionable content includes anything thatthreatens
the unity, integrity, defence, security or sovereignty of
India, friendly relations with foreign states or public order".

Conclusions
Censorship in movie is necessary, as the movie maker puts
everything in the movie to make it interesting, like vulgar scene,
abusing language etc. These types of things are highly responsible
in degrading the culture of our society. So the censor board should
always take a step in removing these types of things from the
movie but keeping in mind that freedom of speech and freedom of
expression is given.
Censorship depends from industry to industry and in case of
movies, there is censor board of film certification to which all the
rights are there to censor the movies and categorize them
according to the age of the people of the country and cut short the
content which is not to be disclosed on the screens.
India being the number one democratic and demographic country,
has a large culture and based on that, censorship move should be
established by different industries and nature of work so that it
would not affect any part of the country and its culture.
