A Bombay High Court bench will hear the petitions filed by the three activists, challenging the FIR registered against them by Pune Police on January 1.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
I see several idiots championing the cause of the stupid judge. I say to them…What does a title or author of a book matter? If a small book is able to threaten the concept of a mighty state of India, then it tells us the sorry state of affairs of that state. If the state is so weak that it cannot even protect itself from the ideas contained in that book, except by state sponsored aggression, suppression and terror and not by any meaningful debate or by public conversations, then what use it is to its citizens. Such a weak state needs to die a quick death for the betterment of its citizens.
No wonder journalists have such low credibility. The book in question (by the judge) is not the classic by Leo Tolstoy, but a namesake by Biswajit Roy. Sheesh, talk about checking facts.
Didn’t realise it’s a crime for judges to ask questions in court? Although I agree India’s judicial system is a bad joke.
The Judge never commenred about Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace . He questioned about the a book called War and Peace in Junglemahal by Biswajit Roy . I have great respect for Shekhar Gupta and I am sure his reporters would give due delligence before writing about facts in an article
This sounds like another case of journalists jumping the gun. Apparently the “War and Peace” book the judge was asking about wasn’t the one by Tolstoy but “War and Peace in Jungle Mahal” by Biswajit Roy. Of course reading any book doesn’t mean anything but it isn’t wrong to ask a question to gain some insight into the defendant. Perhaps, our journalists can all slow their speed a bit and actually vet the news before going over board.
The judge may have all kinds of flaws but such simple reporting errors hardly fill one with confidence in the rest of these claims.

Petty men in positions of power. Reminds me of the Marathi movie “Court”.

What’s next? An arrest warrant for the author, Leo Tolstoy…If this is the nature of the geniuses of the Indian Judiciary, then God save the Indians!
