Manipur shows the horrifying possibilities India will face on its current path-a path upheld by many from well to do & middle classes, a path condoned by selfish corporates, a path allowing ideologically inebriated crowds to run amock, the path of exclusion, hate, majoritarianism

Bail is stayed. Accused is arrested by another agency from jail before that stay order is considered by SC. This did not happen in emergency of 1975, but in the year and on the day when some people were hoarsely crying about fifty years of emergency. Strange coincidence.

When the SC said that speaker of Maharashtra assembly should decide in 'reasonable time' (the case of 16 SS MLAs) , everyone knew that it would take unreasonable time.

Emergency musings: As we remember proclamation of emergency 48 years ago, and rightly so, let's remember the number of political detenues languishing in jail today without bail and without trial and on charges of sedition and 'unlawful' activities.

Looks like the current Court believes that it's facing its 1973 moment sandwiched between a repressive regime and deeply divided and chaotic political arena. 1/6

Oh, and by the way, don't ask where the resources for this massive assault on democracy. We have our judiciary to thank. It has facilitated this by deferring the case of Electoral bonds. But who knows, it may fund them perfectly legal. 7/7

Whether Karnal of Indore, do we need any further proof that it is the Indian state that is waging war against its citizens by all foul means in broad daylight?

New 'rule of law'= arrest but don't file chargesheet in time. Yet oppose bail. Deny the accused access to medical records ....and while the accused is caught up in legal maze, claim that the country is full democracy.

To expunge something said on the floor of the House is a power of presiding officer which needs to be very rarely and sparingly used -not for rewriting future history so that speeches are censored when today's govt may find them unpalatable.
