Porn website ban in India

Yesterday Government of India blocked viewing of pornographic sites in India through internet service providers. It is right step towards enforcing law of the land. As per laws of India producing and distributing pornographic material is not allowed and anybody doing that is liable to criminal proceedings.

Some people are opposing this ban. I would like ask them the following questions:

  1. If production and distribution of Indian pornographic content is prohibited than why should foreign pornographic content be allowed? 
  2. Why should there be two different laws in India one for Indian content and another for foreign content?  

These porn sites are a financial burden on Indian economy because 70% of the expanse of Internet Service Providers of India is incurred on India to USA link which is majorly used for downloading pornographic content. If we ban pornographic content then usage of India to USA link will come down and Internet Service Providers will have to spend less on the link and this will save valuable foreign exchange for the country.

These pornographic sites are responsible for crime against women in India. In most of the cases of crime against women it was found that accused got inspiration of the crime from pornographic sites. Banning pornographic sites will see reduction in crime against women in India.
