Punishing truth in the country of Satyamev Jayate

Can the truth be a statement of contempt? Indian judiciary says Yes. Recently an Indian court has sentenced journalists for publishing, what they say is truth, against a retired judge. Court rejected their submission that truth can not be held in contempt of the court. This judgment has evoked a sharp response from many legal luminaries.

I am not a legal luminary, but I also feel that truth can not be seen in contempt of anybody, including judiciary. Truth is God. Can God be held in contempt?

ges I wonder what has inspired the learned judges to pass such a judgment. Do they feel that judges are above the law written down in the constitution, and even the law of God, that truth always wins?

Where love has gone?

In the blind race to be materially successful, human race has left love behind. Sons are killing their parents. Brothers are killing brothers. Wives kill husbands and husbands kill wives. Friends kill friends. Even people unknown to each other, meeting for the first time, kill each other without any valid reason.

Where love has gone? Why people are full of hate? These are the questions which disturbs me. I try to find the answer but it is not found.

Is Indian media colour blind?

Newspapers are full of news about corruption, violence, conflict. TV channels also focus on such news only. Is Indian media not able to find good news or good things have stopped happening in India? Whenever I look at news I feel disturbed. It is difficult for me to believe that good people are not there and good things are not happening. Then why media shows only bad things?

Appeasement is another form of communalism

Communalism is strong devotion to the interests of one's own minority or ethnic group rather than those of society as a whole. Appeasement is yielding or concede to the belligerent demands of a minority or a ethnic group in a conciliatory effort, sometimes at the expense of justice or other principles. If you think deeper you will find that communalism and appeasement are two sides of the same coin.

Political parties claim themselves to be secular but in fact they all are communal. Every single political party divides people on religious grounds and project themselves as the only messiah for divided groups. This is going on from British days. After India got independence, new political rulers decided that this policy should comntinue.

People should see and protect themselves from this divide and rule policy (Indian version). But then people are a divided lot.

Displaying open loyalty to other countries

Like during freedom struggle against British rule, Indo-China war, the Indian communists have again been exposed for their loyalty towards other countries. This time it is Indo-US nuclear deal. Left parties are openly working as agents of communist China. It is unfortunate that UPA Govt in its bid to remain in power is dragging its feet on nuclear deal under pressure of these Chinese Dalals.

For Sonia Gandhi it may not be a big deal but Manmohan Singh and other congress leaders are Indians, and they are loyalty-bound with Indian interests. BJP and other non-UPA parties are also behaving in unindian manner.

People of India, in majority, want Govt to go ahead with nuclear deal. UPA Govt should respect this wish of the people.
