Literary works and Government censorship

In 1982, Dr. Hari Joshi was suspended from Government employment by then Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh for writing a satirical article Rehearsal Jaree hai" in the section "Aah aur Wah" in leading national daily Dainik Bhaskar on 17 September 1982 . Later writers and journalists came out in support of Dr. Joshi . Leading national dailies such as Times of India, Indian Express, Dharmyug, Dinman, Ravivar, Dainik Bhaskar wrote articles in favour of freedom of speech supporting Dr. Joshi's rights and condemning the unconstitutional step taken by the state Government. On 4 October 1982, then Leader of Opposition of State Assembly Sunderlal Patwa raised this glaring issue in a no confidence motion against the ruling Government. A few months later Hari Joshi was reinstated in Government employment.

In 1997, Housing Board of Madhya Pradesh served a legal notice of defamation for his satirical article "Ishmashan aur Housing Board ka Makaan" published on 17 June 1997 in the section "Kante ki Baat" in the national daily Navbharat Times. The notice was later withdrawn.
