Ten JNU students, including Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya have been charge-sheeted under the sedition law for raising ‘anti-India’ slogans in 2016....
India has been pleading for long to bring reforms in institutions like the United Nations, IMF, and World Bank, which it believes are West-dominated and don’t reflect current global realities.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
Capable of being fired in plain and high-altitude areas, it has day-and-night capability and two-way data link to support post-launch target, aim-point update.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
Shri Kapil Sibal should urge the Congress party to put this in their Manifesto. In the first 100 days, they should rescind the section. Later, if Parliament considers it necessary, a new law could be passed, taking note of the apex court pronouncements on the subject. 2. If all the good ideas that parties support while in the opposition are put into effect when they are voted to power, that would move us to better governance.
If a person shouts any slogan, no matter how objectionable it sounds, it only shows his thinking, or at worst his intent. It may not lead to a “tangible act”, or even “workable conspiracy” which can harm the society. If it doesn’t, then such a person should be left alone (assuming that he hadn’t been shouting outright obscenities).
If you start arresting people merely for “thinking”, then how many will you arrest? If a roadside tea vendor, on some freakish impulse starts shouting, “Bharat terey tukde honge, Inshaallah Inshaallah”, then what will you do with him? Apparently there is no proof that these JNU students, Kanhaiya Kumar etc were shouting these slogans — physical photography, lip syncing, voice identification. “Bharat terey tukde honge, Inshaallah Inshaallah” is HEARD in the video, but NOBODY’S lips seem to be saying those words! Could it not be that the audio was superimposed on the video? Is this the way the Delhi police works?!
Bizarre things have been happening under BJP government at the centre and in states. Once some people showed black flags to Adityanath, and they were arrested, and also denied bail! Three people are arrested in Bulandshehr for cow slaughter, and charged under NIA! These BJP leaders are so sodden with arrogance, as if there’s no tomorrow!
