justice for the pandits of kashmir...
pandits have been cleansed from the valley of kashmir, the reason, they belong to the hindu religion. they have been living in the camps in jammu in appalable conditions for more than fifteen years now. they have become refugees in their own country.
the rehablitation package is too late, too little. this is not a dignified way of treating our own citizens.
there is no urgency what so ever from any quarters of our country to bring the pandits back with complete security to kashmir valley...
justice...?
justice to the people in kashmir
kashmir has been on the boil since India got independence. it has to be remembered the muslims of kashmir were in forefront along with the indian jawan to fight the pathan army of pakistan during 1947-48. this in the background of the maharaja of kashmir running away to jammu. jawaharlal nehru himself, at lal chowk in srinagar and then in the united nations had promised plebiside. where the people of kashmir can choose to be 1. stay with the indian union 2.to be a part of pakistan or 3. to be an independent nation.
we never kept the promise.
we signed the nehru-sheikh abdullah agreement.
under article 370 of the indian constitution
no one outside kashmir can buy property in kashmir.
the state would have complete autonomy except for:
1.defence 2.currency 3.communication.
the state of kashmir would be having a separate
1.flag
2.the chief minister would be called the vazir-e-azam. (prime minister)
3.the governor is called the president of jammu and kashmir.
4.the state would have a different constitution.
these were all diluted as the time went on...
we in the main land do-not trust the people in the valley.
democracy was conveniently distorted to serve the rulers in delhi.
this includes the jailing of a elected chief minister and keeping him jail without trial.
during this turmoil thousand of innocent people have disappeared/ killed by the army and by the militants.
we cannot speak for the militants. but certainly there should be accountability on behalf the army. there is tremendous loss of confidence amongst the people of jammu and kashmir.
justice?
sikhs in delhi.
thousands of sikhs were butchered in delhi in the aftermath of assasination of indira gandhi.
so far no conviction have been made. where is accountability. accountablility of the police machinery, accountablility of the justice department.
all the people who lost their loved ones only because they belonged to sikh religion are still brimming with anger.
if justice is denied, they would not hesitate to take law into their own hands...
falling of the babri masjid
a structure belonging to the archeological survey of india was demolished in broad day light in front of the media, covered all over the world.
none have been found guilty of this crime.
its been more than 12 years and still there are no signs of anybody been convicted by the justice department.
if the guilty are not found and brought to book there would be reprisals on monuments belonging to the hindu community.
justice however difficult and costly and bitter has to be done.
the aftermath of babri demolition
the angry crowds belonging to the muslim community went on a rampage in reaction to the babri masjid demolition targeting hindu businesses. none of the culprits have been booked.
the administration and the police were very lithargic in taking action.
reprisals followed.
the aftermath of the babri demollition 2
in reprisals to the muslim reaction. the hindu militants started attacking the muslim bussiness intrests. since the police were nowhere in picture and many places blatantly partisan, the miscreants grew bolder. in one of shameful acts in civilised society the biggest ever religious clelansing began in mumbai. thousands of people in mumbai were butchered on the streets of mumbai: there crime they belonged to muslim community. the police looked the otherway.
none have been convicted for this barbaric crime.
all the relatives of the people who lost their belongings their lives savings and their loved ones are looking for revenge. because the state has FAILED. justice was denied.
godhra
more than 85 passengers were mercilessly burnt to death by miscreants in a train at godhra station in gujrat.
till date we don't have a credible story on who was responsible for the gruesome murder of these passengers.
reprisals followed
aftermath of godhra.
no assurance came from the authorities that the guilty would be brought to book instead 'the revenge theory' was encouraged. in the worst carnage in independent india thousands of people belonging were butchered on the streets and burnt alive in their homes. their crime they belonged to the muslim faith.
none have been convicted till date for this crime.
all the people who lost their loved ones are looking for 'revenge'
the mumbai shootout
we were not prepared... we failed...in protecting the people...
these should have been the words of our cheif minister and home minister. we all know what they said, and what they did.
what use is it with spending crores of rupees in installing cameras on the platform, the metal detectors on the platform but the constables not equipped with weapons to encounter when somebody is detected with a gun.
the police, i am sorry to say were looking like a bunch of amatures on the day of the incident.
they fought valiently but were failed by their superiors who did not arm them sufficiently for the fight.
the affected people have been calm, but won't be calm for ever... if justice is not done. they are waiting... its gratefull they are giving time. or they would take the law onto their own hands so that 'justice is done'.
justice system has to be overhauled. the notion that the trial can go on for ever has to be changed. a time period of 2 years for the verdict can be a good idea.
the court going on vacation should be cancelled.
the judge transfer should be done only after min 5 yrs. A transferrable judge should not be given any new case, since a new judge has to go for a retrial.
the no of courts and the no of judges should be proportional to the population. it is far less in proportion to the population. more law colleges should be opened to fill the vacuum.
there has to be a balance between ethics and morality when it comes to the conduct of the lawyers and judges. now it is ethics over morality.
only some ideas...
