Manmohan Singh's scathing letter to Narendra Modi may not be as uncharacteristic as it seems. The usually level-headed politician has been stern with his statements many times.
Weak governance, corruption and poverty continue to define tribal life in India. The introduction of industrial and mining projects has benefited contractors, politicians and officials more than Adivasis.
Clean energy is “no longer the sideshow, it is the show”, BVR Subrahmanyam told the Odisha summit, warning India to lead the global shift or risk others’ tech dominance.
Dubai airshow crash & pilot death have rekindled concerns over pilot safety, and need for smarter automated systems that can step in when G-forces, temporary loss of consciousness hit the pilot.
None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
Bihar is a curse to India and does not contribute to any kind of economic growth. The worst performing state in health index, literacy index, poverty index but high performing in population. Such states do not deserve and help from the central government as it wastes a lot of taxpayers money.
These celebrities wearing leftist and liberal hats are biased and partisan in their espousal of causes. There is no harm in writing to PM but why release letter to the media? Obviously, the intention is to play to the gallery in the guise of social activism. The matter is now up in the court; let the law decide who is right and who is wrong.
If they haven’t released, how will people know. Then why is prime minister’s Pro sending Gandhi Jayanti wishes to every mobile in this country. He can just keep it to him. So please, they have an intend to make people know thier stance and what they have requested to the PM. As a prime minister who have been very late in responding to issues on righ wing fascist groups Lynching and killing people in the name of Ram and Religion, its for sure a push. And especially in the context that there is not even a response which came out from PMO on the anxiety shared by these eminant personalities of Indian society
Lawyer claims that he uses judiciary as a tool to get relief to public. I don’t understand how involving celebrities in bogus cases every now and then helps public? He seems to be another Jolly LLB.
A Private Citizen of India filed a Complaint in a Police Station & accordingly FIR was registered. Here no role of Central or State Govt in the summon issued by the Court. Still Press, these 49 VIPs blaming Modi , or Govt of India & saying Democracy is in great danger. Even National Daily in its Editorial condemning Govt & Modi on the issue. Are our Press & VIPs so illiterate not to understand Govt has nothing to with summons issued by the Court?
Yes. at the outset most of these so called celebrities has signed & sent the letter to PM or PMO nothing wrong every citizen can do it. But there is a point stated by the litigant that apart from rather privately doing so, they have published in the media to attract & gain a kind of wide publicity by showing India in a awkward position internationally, as though these lynching is happening in every nook & corner of the country, state government is encouraging this and as if this kind of incidence never happened earlier. which will have a bad ramification internationally, as we have seen a loose statement made by Rahul Gandhi has exploited by Pakistan & China has made the UN to hear unofficially/behind the closed door meeting, is one of the reason.
Why only this issue come out & take other issues also quit your film dom & take up & fight the cause full time. Like Priya who is fighting a legal battle with a ex Minister on sexual harassment case, though it may or may not stand in the court of law for various reasons, evidence this & that etc., but she is very clear to face the consequence though it is a tedious process may drain her by financially, mentally & career-wise . Whether she will win or loose the case that is different but the commitment shown by her is earned her applauds , appreciation & respect. It should be like this, I am sure none of these so called celebrities interest, time & commitment towards the social cause, most of them are adhoc socialites.
I feel pity for Mani to fall in this trap , rather he should have taken his wife’s Suhasini’s advise before signing this petition. Both she & Kushubu the other actress & politician has to face the law on some statement they have made on Public platform. next over 3 to 5 years they have to suffer for defending the statement & allegation legally. Suhasini openly in a TV interview, after the case got dismissed in their favor said that at some point of time she has felt why the hell she got inovolved in all this without knowing the consequences & questions raised on that. some how full time politicians get through but it is not easy for others, initially, they will instigate you to do such things being a public/star figures later on you have to suffer they will leave you in lurch.
Like Kamal Hassan who is almost at the fag end of his career as Producer/Actor can be involved in furll time politics, that to be in a lime light projecting
himself as a savior of the Tamil People with the help of script writers to make statements like the recently one…Sultan, Shah, Hindi etc., so at the end of the day his position is like ‘Dhobhi ka Gadha’ rest you all know it…
All right guys face the legal challenge with your claims by substantiating your claim through Datas come clean or apologize to the court & public if you signed this petition & went to Media without studying the case & consequences. All the Best.

It is clear that an attempt is being made to misuse the law and it is sadder that some people are supporting it.
Of course the law would take its course. The honourable courts have given their verdict on such cases in the past and this one too will be exposed for what it is – an attempt at cheap publicity.
Can this lawyer publish a list of his petitions & identify any that was not rejected by court?

Is public criticism of the government a crime?
It is clear that an attempt is being made to misuse the law and it is sadder that some people are supporting it.
