Justice Transparency Praised, Child Online Safety Questioned by CPI‑M Leader

Hannan Mollah welcomed Chief Justice of India Dhananjaya Y. Chandrachud’s remarks on enhancing transparency within the judiciary, calling it a “positive step” toward restoring public confidence. He emphasized that statements must translate into actionable reforms, noting that real accountability requires concrete implementation.

When asked about the government’s recent initiatives on child safety across social media and other digital platforms, Mollah adopted a cautious stance. He said the impact of these measures can only be judged after they are rolled out and the public sees whether they truly reduce online harms.

The CPI‑M figure stressed that any policy aimed at protecting children must be evidence‑based and free from political posturing, ensuring that the welfare of minors remains the primary focus.
