Is Credentials of Super Intelligent Extra Ordinary Highly Talented Dr Suresh Vinyakyrao Joshi available somewhere on Internet ? His marvellous achievement as noble action of sending RTI activist to Jail should be sent to all information commissions, Human Rights, Civil Activists, and his nomination for bravery award to awarding authorities throughout the world and not India alone.
Singing National Anthem is not crime but pride and honour. Perhaps Dr Suresh Vinakayrao Joshi does not understand the importance of National Anthem. He needs to study the past of National Heros as freedom fighters from Maharashtra who were sent to perish at Kala Pani jails when India was slave of British regime. He needs to study about Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Shivaji. If SIC functions like court, has he forgotten judicial oath, judiciary reforms ? What can Dr Suresh Vinayakrao Joshi do to activate non-vigilant sleeping authorities when Mumbai was burning with terror by terrorists whose information commission with powerful network without the need for any appeal/complaint by their bosses on satellite phone and satellite images was far better than entire Commissions of India combined together ? There is difference between common citizens and terrorists and it will be much better if Dr Suresh Vinakayrao Joshi as information commissioner explain the difference publicly ?
