India has to pass particular anti-SLAPP laws if it is to protect the constitutional right to free expression and guarantee strong public debate. Important clauses should be: an accelerated hearing for claimed SLAPP lawsuits, early dismissal of bogus claims, cost shifting to punish unfounded plaintiffs, and protections for digital intermediaries to oppose takedown demands. Defamation and legal notifications’ stifling effect will keep erasing India’s robust press and civil society without these changes.
