Tripura-based content creator Madhabi Biswas was arrested by the Tripura Police on Saturday following allegations of spreading objectionable contents on social media platforms.

She had reportedly crossed all her boundaries and targeted several individuals including high-profile politicians over the past few weeks.

The way she expressed and spoke were, according to many, offensive to modesty and decency and had the tendency to deprave and corrupt minds. Many feel that restrictions on speech and expression are necessary and justified to protect the overall societal interests.

According to police sources, the arrest followed multiple complaints from local residents who claimed that Biswas had posted videos and statements involving high-level figures deemed offensive and misleading.

Authorities stated that a case was registered under relevant sections, pertaining to the circulation of contents that could incite public disorder or harm reputations.

Biswas, known for her controversial contents on social media, often commented on political figures in Tripura in an indecent way. Her recent posts allegedly contained remarks targeting certain individuals and groups. Police officials confirmed that digital evidence was collected before taking her into custody.

Following the arrest, Biswas was taken for questioning at a local police station in Agartala. 

The incident has prompted mixed reactions from the public. While some users on social media expressed support for Biswas and criticized the authorities for stifling free speech, others justified the action, arguing that online platforms must be used responsibly.
