The recent historical development by the Hon'ble Supreme Court about section 124A of the Indian Penal Code and the invocation of sedition charges against Jawahar Lal Nehru University students has sparked controversy about the legality of sedition legislation. India, in the twenty-first century, is on the verge of a being a developed nation, having experienced significant changes since colonization. The Indian legislative has achieved significant progress in a variety of areas. Law is not the tool for the growth of a nation; nonetheless, a good law is a tool for progress. Almost all of India's laws now are either from the colonial period or have roots in that period. Many of these laws were enacted solely for the purpose of oppressing Indians, but they have unhappily made their way into the post-independence period as well, and have become a source of tremendous debate, much like the sedition laws. In this research paper, the researcher has analyzed the law relating to sedition in India.
