Gandhi Jayanti and Mockery of Justice
Seeking justice in India is nothing more than a charade. It has become somewhat like an asymptote; in pursuit of justice being delivered, one cannot think of meeting the clear and much defined finite ends, transforming ones’ hopes into a blatant travesty of justice. In the name of justice we have been witnessing frivolous judgments since ages.
No one killed Jessica Lal, No one ever killed the Black Buck, a homeless man was never crushed to death in a hit-and-run case by any Bollywood celebrity under his SUV, Babri Masjid was never demolished, the the heinous Hathras Gang Rape never occurred…………………………
To ones’ chagrin the aforesaid verdicts have been a poignant reminder of justice being denied.
Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which constitute our life, making it pungent and intoxicating. We only exist in terms of these conflicts, in the ambivalent zone playing different notes of life.
The ubiquitous figurine of the three monkeys (Mizaru, Kikazaru and Iwazaru) of Mahatma Gandhi depicting moral gestures to see no evil, to speak no evil and to hear no evil seems to have lost its roots in the present day. It’s one of the maladies of our age to profess a frenzied allegiance to truth in unimportant matters, to refuse consistently to face her where graver issues are at stake. Justice now is nestled in the hands of the bigots; hence on the cusp of justice there shall always be a spike in ambiguities, disparities and violation of the fair play.
I strongly condemn and deplore the irrational judgments being served to us in the name of justice. The devastation caused is irreversible and cannot be compensated at any cost.
Amidst the prevailing high tension-Happy Gandhi Jayanti.
