💨 Abstract

The Bombay High Court upheld the discharge of self-styled godman Ramesh Modak, who was accused of promoting black magic through his sermons, citing that the Maharashtra's Black Magic Act is intended to curb harmful practices but excludes legitimate religious teachings. The court ruled that Modak was not responsible for workshops where his CD was played, and the complainant had voluntarily attended them.
