Asking the I&B Ministry of India to reconsider their decision of banning condom ads on TV.

Asking the I&B Ministry of India to reconsider their decision of banning condom ads on TV.

The Issue

Recently, The Information and Broadcasting Ministry of India decided that Condom ads will not be aired on television between 6 am-10 pm. Because Smriti Irani said and I quote “Such ads are indecent for children”.

These condom companies have tried really hard to break such stereotypes in India but banning these ads will undo decades of hard work. Children are the ones who need to be educated about this, and the I&B Ministry is trying to hide such vital part of education from them.

Sign the petition, we’ll be sending it to the ministry asking them to reconsider their decision.
