COMMENT: Dear Mr. Lopes, It is my impression that (a) The Indian Parliament is supreme with the proviso that the Judiciary interprets the law that Parliament makes. (b) The only time the populace is in a position to 'dictate' to Parliament, is at the time of elections. Accordingly, there is NO wiggle room for the disruption of civil life by way of disorder. Peaceful protest is one thing, Enforced bandhs and other forms of disorder are NOT supported by the Indian Constitution. If they are, do advise. jc Velim
