Do You Have To Be ‘Pro-Government’ For Supreme Court To Defend Your Rights?

While farmers sit protesting silently on roads, the government along with the Supreme Court continues to indulge in unimportant issues and trials.

In times of the pandemic, when this country is passing through major social, political and economic crises, the media and politicians fearlessly proceed to engulf the nation into useless issues. What adds to the disgust is the changing role of the Honourable Supreme Court which, these days, seems more interested in solving cases that earlier never found place even in the local courts while major issues are vindicated despite the seriousness of the offence.

Representational image.

We are living in times when the court is being used as a medium either for defamation or showing the superiority of the political entities as if all that is left to this country is to prove “whose political party is the strongest”.

If the reports are to be believed, as on September 30th 2020, Supreme Court had 4 crore cases pending which surely must have been related to the “taxpaying common man” for no way could VIP cases be held waiting.

Supreme Court feels offended when someone raises issues on the biased judgements it does but doesn’t want to answer why the boot lickers of monarchy, apparently working as ruling government, walk out of the court “freely”. All this despite being guilty of hate-mongering, bashing, defaming of people, abetting of suicides, conducting illegal media trials, spreading fake news, targetting communities and religion while those questioning the government or trying to raise their voices against the anti-human and fascist regime of the current monarchist government
(irony) are tried, questioned and further exposed to humiliation massively.

There was a time when people used to believe in the Supreme Court over and above any power of the country but today, it seems that those who are “pro” government have more faith on it, that what may come they would be saved despite the seriousness of the crime by none other than the Apex Court even if the local courts or High Courts find them guilty.

The blind-in-Modi-love public seems to be enjoying this collective prosecution of those questioning the government in the hands of politicians, media and now SC, however, the joke is on them as taxpayers for they hardly realise how helpless this makes the common man who now has no firm authority to approach, for seeking justice.

The degrading role of Supreme Court has increased the number of political prisoners in our nation, has given more power to the seat hungry politicians than ever which is evident from the successful commencement of an inhumane law like Love Jihad by the UP government and application of UAPA on students just because they belonged to a particular religion; has made people believe that pleasing and bootlicking is survival and fame. Last but not least, it has snatched away from the common man any hope to find justice unless they are pleasers of the ruling party.

The current regime and scheme of things leave me wondering if the biggest crisis we ever faced was the pandemic that came just in 2020 because from where I see it, this country has been in a major crisis from several years and the pandemic just exposed how filthy things already were beneath the polished surface of governance.
