JUSTICE IN PRACTICE Be you so high or low, the law is supposed to be the same? Gujerat BJP MLA Balram Thawani slapped and brutally kicked a woman Nitu Tejaswani in public, the video of the incident going viral on social media and television. What should have or would have probably happened if he was not a MLA or from BJP but some ordinary citizen or from the minority committee or a Dalit? Let us be honest! Here is actually what happened. No police action at all. The establishment moved fast, video clip vanished from media, television showed a press conference called where the victim sat next to the said MLA and tied a rakhee on his hand, he apologised . The BJP reportedly has given him a showm cause notice. End of matter! Justice for those not in power and do not have the wherewithal is very different, if it is there at all? Justice must not only be done, but seen to be done. The people have overwhelmingly voted for Modi and not necessarily the BJP. During the reign of Modi -!, Gaurakshas and lynching went on, the PM made a statement condemning which had not much effect whilst his spokespersons kept justifying non acton due being a State subject/ law will take its own course and we all know what that means! Will the PM mean muscular business with added solgan "Sub Ka Vishwas?"
