In an era where money and muscle power is calling the
shots, the Supreme Court's timely decision of a
month's imprisonment for Maharashtra's transport
minister, Surupsinh Naik and Additional Chief
Secretary, Ashok Khote for contempt of court, should
act as a deterrent to those politicians and government
officials who have the audacity to disregard orders of
the judiciary which is the important and indispensable
pillar of our constitution.
Politicians should realise that their mere position
and social status does not give them a right to
interfere with the administration of justice by wilful
disobedience of court directives.
In the current Pratapsingh Rane's cabinet we have a
minister or two who are a law to themselves. This
does not augment well for Goa and needs to be checked.
The bureaucrats also have to act with caution and
demonstrate their courage by upholding the rule of
law. They have an obligation to the tax-payer and
should not keep dancing to the whimsical tunes and
fancies of their political bosses. Worse still is
when they are ready to bend when in fact they're not
even supposed to bow.
