The Madhya Pradesh High Court has quashed an FIR against Faizan Ansari, a government school teacher from Betul district, for posting a WhatsApp status that featured the recitation of the Urdu poem 'Be-haya' by Shoaib Kiani. The court ruled that there was no evidence to suggest that Ansari intended to incite hatred or disturb public order. Justice BP Sharma highlighted that criminal liability for speech-related offences must be based on clear evidence of incitement, rather than subjective perceptions. The court described the poem as a satirical commentary on human rights violations against women and noted that it had been well-received on social media. The FIR, lodged under Section 353(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, was deemed to lack any material indicating communal intent. The court stated that the act of sharing the poem, without any additional commentary, does not promote enmity or public mischief. Ansari had uploaded the video on July 22, 2025, and was later summoned by police following complaints that the video could disturb communal harmony.
