What is Article 15?

Article 15 of the Indian Constitution prohibits discrimination of Indians on basis of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth. It broadly entails

Provisions under Article 15:

Article 15(1): It prohibits the the state from discriminating against a citizen on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex, place of birth.

Article 15 (2): Article 15(2) elaborates that no Indian citizen can be discriminated against on basis of religion, race, caste, sex, place of birth. It states that no citizen shall be denied access to shops, public restaurants, hotels and palaces of public entertainment. It also adds that no citizen shall be subject to any disability, liability, restriction or condition with the use of wells, tanks, bathing ghats, roads and places of public resort maintained wholly or partly out of State funds or dedicated to the use of the general public.

Article 15 (3) and (4): The Article also states that the article cannot be used as an argument to make special provisions for women, children or any other backward classes. “Nothing in this article or in clause ( 2 ) of Article 29 shall prevent the State from making any special provision for the advancement of any socially and educationally backward classes of citizens or for the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes,” the article states.

Article 15 (5): An amendment was made in the article in 2018 after the government announced 10% reservation in colleges and universities for economically weaker sections. It states, “Nothing in this article or in sub-clause (g) of clause (1) of article 19 shall prevent the State from making any special provision, by law, for the advancement of any socially and educationally backward classes of citizens or for the Scheduled Castes or the Scheduled Tribes in so far as such special provisions relate to their admission to educational institutions including private educational institutions, whether aided or unaided by the State, other than the minority educational institutions referred to in clause (1) of article 30.]”

#Article15 is relentless, dark‌, disturbing, heart wrenching, well intentioned caste based cop drama. It shows the ugliest side of our inhuman behaviour towards the people ‘who are like not us’. Director @anubhavsinha and @ayushmannk deserves kudos for showing us the mirror.

The suspension of disbelief required for #Article15 lies in us hoping that police officers like Ayan Ranjan exist in the system. One could be fussy and do some nitpicking but the relevance and intensity of #Article15is for everyone to see.

@anubhavsinha slowly sucks you into the world of #Article15. Ewan Mulligan’s images, compelling performances by @ayushmannk #KumudMishra#ManojPahwa etc., a powerful story & the dialogues keep you gripped in a film does not shy away from putting a mirror to society.

A well-made film, #Article15 shocks you with the terror that exists in the name of casteism. @ayushmannkonce again impresses with his unconventional choice. @anubhavsinha doesn’t glorify the crime but emphasizes on the need to change. @sayanigupta‘s powerful act can’t be missed.
