It was hearing a plea filed by an Uttar Pradesh-based man, who appeared in-person to argue his case.

The bench observed the petitioner cannot say what he wanted should be done by others.

“You did something, you made something, you can propagate it. Nobody is stopping you. But you can’t say everyone should do that,” the top court said, while dismissing the plea.
