give short note on the vernacular press act. |
The Vernacular Press Act was passed in 1878 under the Governor Generalship and Viceroyalty of Lord Lytton, for ‘better control” of Indian language newspapers. It was a modelled on the Irish Press Laws. It empowered the British colonial government with extensive rights to censor reports and editorials in vernacular news papers.The Act directly aimed at curtailing the nationalist activities by clamping down on the Vernacular press. |
