HC on Obscene Acts: Wearing Short Skirts, Making Gesture During Dance Cannot Be Termed Obscene, Says Bombay High Court

The Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court has ruled that wearing short skirts and dancing provocatively, including making gestures during performances, cannot be classified as obscene acts. The ruling was made while quashing an FIR against five individuals who were booked for watching a dance performance where fake currency notes were showered on the performers. The court maintained that societal norms have evolved to accept revealing clothing and dance forms and that a broad view of obscenity is essential, averting retrogression. The Court quashed the FIR, citing a lack of evidence of annoyance to the public. Bombay High Court Directs Mumbai Police Not to File Chargesheet Against Former Mumbai City Mayor Kishori Pednekar in Alleged Cheating Case.
