The Supreme Court on Tuesday sought a response from the Centre on whether filing sedition cases in the future would be suspended until it reexamines IPC Section 124A. This comes a day after the Centre submitted it would "reexamine and reconsider" 124A—commonly called the sedition law. Appearing for the Centre, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said he would apprise the bench of it on Wednesday.
