In an era where freedom of expression is under constant threat, it becomes essential for artists, especially cartoonists, to unite and form a platform for their creative voices to be heard. Within the Indian subcontinent lies an incredible wealth of artistic talent, from traditional painters to witty cartoonists. A significant number of these cartoonists have, over the years, faced suppression when their satirical work touched upon sensitive topics or those in power. Teekhi Mirch aims to be a melting pot for these creative minds, providing a unified platform for Indian cartoonists to express themselves freely and without fear. 

Cartoonists have been the voice of dissent for centuries, holding up a mirror to society and poking fun at those in power. To maintain their freedom of expression, cartoonists worldwide have often sought solidarity within cooperative groups, working together to create a safer environment for their community. These collective platforms give cartoonists a chance to share their work and provide much-needed support when they face threats and backlash for their daring, thought-provoking pieces.
