Abstract

A Free Press comes as one of the important interpreters between the government and the people. Freedom means the absence of control, restrictions, interferences etc. Fetters of press therefore mean the fetters on the people. Thus, the liberty of press means liberty to print and publish what one pleases, without previous permission. The freedom of press is not confined to newspapers and periodicals. It includes also pamphlets and circulars and every sort of publication which afford a vehicle of information and opinion.
