A bench headed by Chief Justice N.V. Ramana took note of the Centre’s submissions in which it said it has decided to “re-examine and reconsider” the sedition law by “an appropriate forum” and sought a response to the bench’s suggestion that the filing of sedition cases in future be kept in abeyance till re-examination.
