Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Freedom of speech is undoubtedly the mother of all civil liberties which allows an individual to put his thoughts, opinions, expression, belief, ideas, and criticism in the open so that they can be heard and responded and can very well be acted upon. But, it is not an absolute right and in the interest of the general public the state has authority to regulate the free speech as the idea, belief, and thoughts of one individual, group or community must not be so expressed or communicated so as to transgress the limits and hurt the notion, ideas, and beliefs of other individuals, group or community.
