We must condemn any disrespect toward our President, but the incident involving Droupadi Murmu and Mamata Banerjee raises many questions, some of them uncomfortable.
While some Indians were spewing hatred, the government of Dubai got on with the job. The city coped with the crisis magnificently because of the quality of its leadership.
This decision is so damaging to the government that efforts will be made to ensure that it does not stand. The prosecution has said that it will file an appeal in the high court.
The largest number of victims of identity-based abuse in India are Muslims. In this case, the abuse comes from people at the top, and nobody is willing to do anything about it.
In tactical terms, the shirtless protest was worse than a self-goal. Suddenly, the fiascos of the AI Summit were forgotten, and the Youth Congress’s disruption became the issue.

Very relevant questions asked and as said we do not want answers. Added to this public apathy is the selective stance of press and polity which really make a difference in our country. See the different attitudes and coverage over these incidents that happened simultaneously in various states. Also see the callous silence of our society on murder of innocent young lad in Haryana by cow vigilantes
How do such things happen in a country full of such self righteous charlatans who masquerade as journalists? All journalists claim themselves to be Lilly White.
Hello Mr Sanghvi,
I hope you keep writing about these things. I’m one of many who think like you. Everyone deserves a fair trial. If we are here, it is because the prospect of getting justice from our system is nil unless you are moneyed or have other political power. We will only be able to address it by reforming the judicio-political system, as Swaminathan AI says. After we do that we can start exhorting people to care about the life of the rickshaw-wallah. Until then, this seems like the only likeness of justice that the masses can feel at least a bit satisfied about.

A welcome change to see Vir talk about a real issue and not act as a suck up the The family.
