जब वीडियो वायरल हुआ, तो कलकत्ता उच्च न्यायालय के वकील सहित कई सोशल मीडिया उपयोगकर्ताओं ने दोनों के खिलाफ कार्रवाई की मांग करते हुए पुलिस में शिकायत दर्ज कराई।बैरकपुर के पुलिस कमिश्नर आलोक राजोरिया ने कहा कि जांच शुरू कर दी गई है. फेसबुक या किसी अन्य सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म पर पोस्ट के बारे में आवश्यक विवरण एकत्र करना। जल्द ही जांच कर आगे की कार्रवाई की जाएगी। लड़कियां नाबालिग हैं या नहीं, इसका पता नहीं चल पाया है. कुछ रिपोर्ट्स के मुताबिक, वह 11वीं कक्षा में हैं।

सूत्रों के मुताबिक, वीडियो वायरल होने और लोगों द्वारा कार्रवाई की मांग करने के बाद लड़कियों ने फेसबुक से वीडियो डिलीट कर दिया. एक अधिकारी ने कहा कि वीडियो डिलीट होने के बाद परेशान महसूस करते हुए दोनों अन्य सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म पर लाइव हुईं और लड़कियों ने कहा कि उन्होंने मनोरंजन के लिए ऐसा किया।

किसी भी राष्ट्रीय प्रतीक का अपमान करना वर्जित है। प्रतीकों का अपमान करना भारतीय संविधान का अपमान माना जाता है। उल्लंघन करने वालों को कारावास, जुर्माना या दोनों हो सकते हैं। जैसा कि राष्ट्रीय सम्मान अधिनियम, 1971 की धारा 3 में प्रदान किया गया है। जो कोई भी जानबूझकर राष्ट्रगान गाने से रोकता है या राष्ट्रगान बजने के दौरान कोई गड़बड़ी या अनादर करता है, उसे तीन साल तक की कैद की सजा दी जाएगी।

Insulting the national anthem is considered a serious offense in many countries, and laws vary depending on the jurisdiction. These laws are generally intended to protect the national symbol and promote respect for the country’s heritage. Here’s an overview of the legal implications related to insulting the national anthem:

1. General Legal Framework

Criminal Offense: In many countries, insulting the national anthem is a criminal offense. This may include acts such as refusing to stand, altering the lyrics, mocking the anthem, or any behavior deemed disrespectful during its performance.
Civil Penalties: Some jurisdictions may impose civil penalties rather than criminal charges, including fines or community service.

2. Specific Country Examples

United States:
- There is no federal law mandating how individuals must behave during the national anthem. The U.S. Flag Code suggests that citizens should stand and face the flag, but this is not legally enforceable. However, actions like burning the flag or kneeling during the anthem have sparked significant public debate, and such acts are generally protected under the First Amendment as free speech.
India:
- In India, disrespecting the national anthem is a punishable offense under the Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, 1971. The law mandates that anyone who intentionally disrupts the singing or performance of the anthem or shows disrespect can face imprisonment for up to three years, a fine, or both.
China:
- China’s National Anthem Law, enacted in 2017, makes it illegal to disrespect the national anthem. This includes altering the lyrics, performing it in a distorted or disrespectful manner, or using it in inappropriate contexts. Violators can face up to 15 days of detention and, in severe cases, criminal prosecution.
Germany:
- Germany has strict laws against insulting national symbols, including the national anthem. Such acts can be prosecuted under the country’s laws against hate speech and public order offenses.
Malaysia:
- In Malaysia, disrespecting the national anthem, “Negaraku,” can result in imprisonment of up to one month, a fine, or both. The law requires that the anthem be treated with utmost respect during official and public events.

3. Common Forms of Disrespect

Refusal to Stand: Refusing to stand during the national anthem is often seen as a form of protest and can be considered disrespectful, depending on the country.
Mocking or Satire: Using the national anthem in a satirical, mocking, or commercial manner may be considered an insult.
Altering Lyrics or Music: Changing the lyrics or music of the national anthem in a way that is perceived as disrespectful can lead to legal consequences.
Disruptive Behavior: Any disruptive behavior during the performance of the national anthem, such as talking loudly, laughing, or creating disturbances, can be viewed as an insult.

4. Freedom of Expression vs. Respect for National Symbols

Balancing Rights: In democratic countries, the right to freedom of expression is often balanced with the need to respect national symbols. This can lead to debates over what constitutes acceptable behavior during the national anthem.
Court Cases: Various court cases around the world have addressed the issue, with some courts upholding individuals’ rights to protest during the anthem, while others have supported the enforcement of laws protecting the anthem.

5. Enforcement and Penalties

Fines: In many countries, insulting the national anthem may result in a fine, which can vary depending on the severity of the offense.
Imprisonment: In more severe cases, individuals may face imprisonment. The length of the sentence can vary widely from a few days to several years.
Community Service: Some jurisdictions may impose community service as an alternative or additional penalty.

6. Public Reaction and Social Implications

Patriotism vs. Protest: Actions that are perceived as disrespectful to the national anthem often spark strong reactions from the public. Some view such acts as a legitimate form of protest, while others see them as an attack on national unity.
Social Consequences: Beyond legal penalties, individuals who insult the national anthem may face social backlash, including public criticism, loss of employment, or ostracization.

7. Educational and Preventative Measures

Awareness Campaigns: Some countries conduct awareness campaigns to educate citizens about the importance of respecting the national anthem and the legal consequences of disrespect.
School Education: Schools often include lessons on the significance of the national anthem and proper conduct during its performance to instill respect from a young age.

In summary, insulting the national anthem is treated as a serious offense in many parts of the world, with varying legal consequences depending on the country’s laws and cultural context. While freedom of expression is valued in many democracies, actions that are seen as disrespectful to national symbols like the anthem can still result in legal penalties and social repercussions.
