Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fair use permits a party to use a copyrighted work without the copyright owner’s permission for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research. These purposes only illustrate what might be considered as fair use and are not examples of what will always be considered as fair use.

Detailed explanation-2: -This is because a person who copies or uses the original work without permission can be sued in a court of law through a lawsuit and be made to provide compensation to the original owner of the work. If anyone wants to use any of the copyrighted work, then they can get permission from the owner.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fair use is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sections 107 and 109 of the Indian Copyright Act state that the use of copyrighted material for commentary, criticism, news reporting, teaching or research is allowed if it is done fairly and substantially. While these provisions provide some guidance, it is up to individuals to apply them in specific cases.
