According to official records, at least 28 people have been killed since May, but the actual figure is much higher, according to Arif Jwadder, a human rights activist in Assam. He said police killings occur “every other day”.

An advocate praising extra judicial killings is worst. She is not fit to be an advocate.

His story was mentioned in ncert textbook.
In 1951 a 23 year old tribal man in Assam was arrested. He was never tried. He walked out 54 years later at the age of 77, on a bond of one rupee.
His name was Machal Lalung, from Morigaon district in Assam.
He spoke only Tiwa, his tribal language. Police booked him under Section 326 for causing grievous hurt. Human rights investigators later found no real evidence for the charge.
Within a year he was sent to a mental hospital in Tezpur. Then the system forgot him.
In 1967 doctors declared him fully fit. Instead of being freed, he was moved to a jail in Guwahati.
He stayed there for 38 more years. No trial ever happened.
In 2003 human rights groups took his case to the National Human Rights Commission.
On 1 June 2005 a court released him on a personal bond of one rupee.
His sister, his last family, had died five years earlier. When he returned to his village, only one person recognised him.
The Supreme Court ordered Assam to pay him ₹3 lakh and ₹1,000 a month.
He died on 25 December 2007, two and a half years after he walked free.

Once again extremely puzzled :-
Nehru was PM and his cabinet passed :-
- The Hindu Marriage Act 1955 - that ended polygamy
- The Hindu Succession Act - that gave inheritance rights to women for the first time
Indira Gandhi was PM
- Gave protection to 1 Crore Hindus from Persecution by the Pakistani Army during Operation Searchlight
Many Bengalis called her Durga which extended to Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee
Rajiv Gandhi was PM
- When both Ramayana and Mahabharata were televised Nationally on Doordarshan , both HINDU EPICS
- When his government gave permission to the VHP to have the foundation lying ceremony for the proposed Ram Temple in Ayodhya
Manmohan Singh was PM when :-
- Yakub Memon was convicted to be hanged
- Ajmal Kasab was actually hanged to death
So for the LOVE OF GOD - How does anyone with 1/10th of a brain still functioning claim that THEY ARE ANTI HINDU?

The Kerala Congress tweet asking CJI Surya Kant to resign was a blunt political response to his own public remark that law & order was “not my domain.” Deleting it, removing the employee, and issuing an unconditional apology was an unnecessary surrender. Filing a contempt petition over a deleted, disowned political statement risks turning free speech into a punishable offence. Judiciary must tolerate robust criticism. #FreeSpeech #ContemptOfCourt

After this, slowly but surely the brassware industry came to be dominated by Baniyas as many traditional Muslim manufacturers gave up this work. The same happened in Aligarh over time & one can notice the same pattern in Lucknow with chikankari work.

Mr Rubio has summoned his employee to Mumbai.
Modi ji, your officials in the External Affairs Ministry are confused about what's going on.
You might want to explain.
Unless, of course, you want me to.

The consequence of this mélange of petitions filed before the SC will be months of chaotic hearings, culminating in some “guidelines” that will be broad and vague enough to further entrench state impunity and further narrow civil rights. Repeating pattern.

2019 का ऐतिहासिक युद्ध, जब वकीलों ने दिल्ली पुलिस को सड़कों पर दौड़ा दौड़ाकर पीटा था और दिल्ली पुलिस के जवान धरने पर बैठ गए थे। कहानी सिलसिलेवार ढंग से यहाँ पढ़ें 👇🏼
2019 में हमारे लोकतंत्र का एक खंभा बुरी तरह हिल गया था।
कहानी शुरू होती है दिल्ली के तीस हजारी कोर्ट से। एक वकील साहब ने कैदियों वाली @DelhiPolice की वैन के पास अपनी गाड़ी पार्क कर दी। कहासुनी हुई, पुलिस ने वकील साहब को आम आदमी मानकर घसीट दिया। 1/n

When CJP was granted permission to protest, many were quick to float conspiracy theories that we were planted by the BJP.
Yesterday, the INDIA bloc held a massive protest, but there was no crackdown like the one we witnessed on October 10.
This is exactly how the govt plays us against each other. By treating different protests differently, they create suspicion and mistrust among people who are ultimately fighting for the same cause.
My only request to everyone is to see through these tactics. Today, they may allow one protest and crush another. Tomorrow, they could reverse the roles. The idea is to keep us doubting each other instead of questioning those in power.
Don’t let conspiracy theories divide us. Don’t fall into the trap of fighting among ourselves when we should be standing together.
The fight is against Gyanesh Kumar and those protecting him. Don’t lose sight of that.

Supreme Court Collegium secrecy must end.
Citizens have a right to know why judges are selected and why senior judges are superseded.

Opacity in judicial appointments erodes public trust. Transparency is not optional.
