upon the religion, race, place of birth, residence, language etc of any particular group or class or upon
the founders and prophets of a religion. The jurisdiction of this Section is widened so as to make
promotion of disharmony, enmity or feelings of hatred or ill-will between different religious, racial,
language or regional groups or castes or communities punishable. Offence on moral turpitude is also
covered in this section.
The offence is a cognizable offence and the punishment for the same may extend to three years, or with
fine, or with both. However, the punishment of the offence committed in a place of worship is
enhanced up to five years and fine.
