Whether the Prohibition of Expressing Matters in Walls Act, 1965 is Unconstitutional
The Prohibition of Expressing Matters on Walls Act, 1965 is argued to be unconsititutional becasue it imposes a blanket ban on all forms of wall expression, thereby violating the fundamental right of freedom of expression. The Act fails to distinguish between lawful and unlawful content, uses vague and overbroad language, and contradicts other laws that permit affixing notices. As a result, it restricts constitutional freedoms, goes against principles of legality and certainity, and should be declared null and void to uphold the supermacy of the constitution.
