Why isn't he now in prison for inciting terror?
**** I don't know Umesh. I thought hard, but hadn't a clue.
Why ? Perhaps YOU can explain to us why. Ram stayed the heck steer
clear of this one.
But I think you really called whats-his-name by the fitting epithet
of "sock of mud".
I tell ya, there are terrorists everywhere . Even in Rajasthan.
Imagine that! I bet it is that ISI again. They are everywhere. Do you
think the people of Rajasthan will forgive him and the Gujjars for
terorizing the Maharani's peaceable kingdom?

Maybe Ram has an answer :-).
The latest news is that : National Security Act imposed in Rajasthan.
Under the National Security Act, the District Magistrate can order
arrest without a warrant.
That is desi-demokrasy in its best! !

'Rock of Gibraltar' leading protest

JAIPUR: If the Gujjar agitation is being conducted with a modicum of
military precision, it's because the chief strategist of the
protests is a retired Army colonel, who, his supporters say, has the
qualities of a general.
Col Kirori Singh Baisala rose from the ranks in the Army, from a
lowly sepoy, and is known for his rigidity and commitment, as was
seen when Gujjar mobs across the state attacked Rajasthan police in
coordinated waves, completely overwhelming them.
"Let hundred people die. But we are clear in our objectives. We have
suffered enough and would not go back until we get the ST status,"
he said. Since Monday, he has been sitting with the bodies of six
people killed in the police firing in Pipalkehra village, his native
place.
In the Army, he was called the 'Rock of Gibraltar' by his officers
when he was a jawan.
When the chief minister, Vasundhara Raje, sent her emissary to
invite him to Jaipur and and hold a meeting with her, he
said , "Maharaniji ko kah dijiye ki pahle ek chithi de dein jisme
vachan dein ki sarkar hamein ST status dene ke liye recommend karti
hai, phir meeting mein aoonga (Tell the Maharani to give a letter
promising
ST status, then I'll come to the meeting)."
