Note that this law doesn't really repress "freedom of speech" so much as the way in which you can express your opinions.
i.e. the story implies that this man will go to jail because he said something bad about Sonia Ghandi. Actually, the law appears to forbid this man from posting vulgar/obscene content online. The fact that he posted it about Ghandi sounds (technically) irrelevant.
Google isn't really tossing human rights activists to the wolves on this one - sort of a stretch to consider the action "evil".
