Couldn't agree more. Those that swear by India's independent judiciary do not know that the Judges, Commissioners, Politicians, and other Celebrities work hand in glove, and often found in the same evening Parties cheering their blues away. The camaraderie runs deeper than Sholay's Jai and Veeru.

Victim? The aam-aadmi and poor homeless.

Man, India's still in deep, and it pains.

LOL...let's blame the judiciary, the politicians, the industrialists, the actors. Everyone except the population of India. Because the aam-aadmi of India is a beacon of ethics and justice and can do no wrong.

I have said a number of times and will repeat once again, people get the administration they deserve. It is simply a reflection of the collective mentality. The notion that only some bad people are ruining it for most good ethical law-abiding citizens is utter nonsense, the reality is that the people of India are getting exactly the same fuzzy judicial system they want when they themselves are on trial. The difference is in the scale of the crime - Aam-aadmi wants a fuzzy system for smaller violations (like a traffic ticket or an illegal extension of their home). But the vast majority wants exceptions made for them and seek shortcuts. The idealism only shows through when the accused is not within immediate family.

How else do you explain the hordes of idiots dancing and celebrating outside of Salman's house? These aren't politicans / industrialists / policemen / millionaires / actors celebrating. And I'll guarantee you that the dimwit who tried to commit suicide outside the high court isn't a crorepati. Its the aam aadmi.

But of course, its always so much easier to point fingers elsewhere. The country has a collective Phd in doing this. And then these geniuses sit and wonder why things don't change.

Are you there?

Strongly believe the educated middle class and above are the real culprits. Even as early as 1915 Mahatma Gandhi had severely criticized their indifferent attitude towards the country but selfish all the time.

Would like to share recent incident happened in a SBI Branch near my house. There were about 5 or 6 of us standing in queue to update and print our pass books. Since each one had more than one book it was taking a few minutes for each of us. One middle aged woman entered, had one look at the queue and went straight to the cabin a few metres away, said her RD payments were over and that she wanted to confirm the same. The officer says that she had to update and print the pass book from our counter, since there were no entries for many months. Immediately, she turns up at the head of our queue and demanded the same from the staff doing the job. Since I was watching the whole act, requested her to join the queue. She immediately blamed the computer system, says it was the officer who wants it. I retort, the officer had only asked her to update her pass book but did not say she need not come in queue. But again she would go to the manager's cabin with the same query and again come back to break the queue. Finally she had her way ahead of many, but could stall her only until my transaction was over. If this was the vile and guile for one simple job, what not we would do avoid conviction in a hit and run case.

Roads are for vehicles, not the footpath. Poor folks who cant afford rental place, will end up on footpaths to sleep. That does not mean that criminals drive their vehicles on the footpath when drunk.

For those who don't know things in this case. Ravindra Patil was a police constable who was given to the criminal as a bodyguard. It's not his personal bodyguard. Patil took care of things after the accident since the criminal and his cousin Kamal Khan ran away like cowards. Cops did not bother to interrogate Patil properly, but he told the truth that the criminal was driving. Its surprising that Patil died of TB. Looks like the criminal and his family may have a hand in Patil's death. The criminal will have the curse of Patil's mom. Hope the Blackbuck case moves fast and get this criminal where he belongs, IN THE SLAMMER.

The criminal should wear the T shirt "Being Inhuman"

One of the accused friends says on TV if one can get the best doctors, why can't they hire the best lawyers, if they have money. Do not know whether he was wearing anything waist down and he wouldn't be worried about it either.

Because of the explosion in vehicle population and lawlessness roads have become killer fields. The Indian judiciary was at its corrupt best, when it handed bail to the criminal. The criminal who had come whether he would get bail or not, went back home with permission to sing duets in foreign locations.

The latest tweak given is that the court has not examined the other occupant of the car who had run away abroad and absconding for 10 years and the blame is on the prosecution for not producing him.

The bad example the case has set is that if one can give donations to political parties, brush shoulders with political bosses, and can do some kite flying with them, they can literally get away even with murder.

The black buck case too is not to be brushed aside. Apart from the Forest Department nobody should enter forests without permission. Forests in India have shrunk to a fraction in the last 70 years and because of the climate change no rains. And our hero is really doing a lot for the country and its people.
