platform to raise concerns about government policies, particularly those involving

"misinformation" and the potential to "disturb public order", the Government, through
an executive order under the Information Technology Act, directs the social media
platforn to take down Anika's posts. Further, the police issue adirective requiring Anika

before publication.

Valid? If no, what remedies does Anika have.

b) The Parliament enacts a law that imposes a blanket ban on women
from being employed
in any position within the State Fire Serviccs Department. The stated justification for
the
law is that fire service roles are physically demanding, involve high risk, and
require
personnel to be available at all hours, making them, according to the lawmakers,
unsuitable for women. Renu, a trained firefighter who meets all the physical and
professional requirements for the job, challenges the constitutionality of this law as
violative of Article 14 before the Supreme Court.
1. Is Renu's action against thec ban justified, and what is thc test for reasonable
classification?
ii. -. How does Article 14 serve as a guarantee against arbitrary state action?
