No one is discussing how to improve and speed up the judiciary so that the Judgments are really given and that to in time. one thing i want to suggest that if lower Courts have convicted a person then he should not be allowed to contest though the person has gone in appeal but if he is not convicted then he be allowed to contest though the state has filed an appeal. of course i really don't say the Judiciary is independent as it appears in academic or in constitution which is the other big problem.

Credibility builds gradually - it takes effort and time to gain and sustain it. Iit dents very quicky when interests and safety of the people are compromized. It snaps instantaneously when 'party' is put before the nation!

All political parties should have learnt their lessons from history - but alas they show no signs of that!

Narrow political gains, and not nation building, seems to be the goal for all parties. When will INDIA and Indians recognize this? When will we learn to distinguish real leaders from the opportunists?

What happened in 1984 was shame and should be taken as ill-effects of the civilized society. But what is happening now is more dangerous - all political parties trying to take maximum mileage out off the incident to divert the attention of the common man. Its very SAD

The political Russian Roulette has gone horribly wrong for Congress.

The ramification are long term, regardless of what the spokes persons of the Congress party may say.

Is this the proverbial last straw on the camels back?

The Congress has a lot to gain and nothing to lose if they decide to drop Tytler from their list of candidates. His continuance in the fray would only put the party on the defensive, and give a readymade issue on the platter for their opponents to capitalize on.

I have been closely following the `Sikh riot issue of 1984’ and how Jagadish Tytler put up his defence today through his Press Meet. As a citizen of this country I feel outraged by the sheer fact that even though the genocide killed 3000 people which indeed a fact, innocent Sikhs were killed and their property shattered, we as a Nation haven’t been able to find out the truth and punish the real victims.

Leaving aside the Politicians who do want to survive on such episodes, as a journalist, I feel terribly slighted that we have not been able to give our support and put forth the evidence truly in the correct perspective. Somewhere, there seems to be a flaw and a charge that we are getting more accustomed to getting into the herd mentality and trying to stereo type our views, comments and also news. Here are some questions:

Jarnail Singh’s anguish was that, even after 25 yrs the Sikh Community had not got justice? He did not want politicization of the issue.

? Valid point, why are we repeatedly concentrating on the attack on the home Minister and not revealing the true facts to the public? How many commissions were set up, what does the FIR say (Tytler clearly says that not a singe constable visited him!?? Till date that a Commissioner of Police has given him a clean chit? )

? Tytler seems to be pointing a finger at Former Prime Minister-Atal Behari Vajpayee’s office and also some RSS people in this episode repeatedly! What’s the truth? Why are we sidestepping this issue? Strange that except him nobody else in the Congress is also stating this! What a contradiction? Why don’t we bring up the RSS chief or their spokesperson to respond to this? BJP is going hammer and tongs on this issue, why don’t we brace them up with these questions and get a response?

? Badal says that it is not just a candidature but arrests of the culprits. Fine, who are they? Where is the snag? He should be put questions that Tytler is saying Viz: Not a single FIR or charge sheet or any case against him? Infact the lawyers who represent the victims should also be asked these questions because they are not politicians?!!

I am distressed to see the same stress by all the electronic media about, Whether Tytler gets the ticket or not? Rather than the true story of what really matters.

Take for instance the Union Carbide tragedy in Bhopal, the victims never got justice and the Company got away.

Need we say more about genocides in India and how justice is slow, thereby people loose faith in Judiciary. We really need to ponder?

India is supposed to be a secular country. All Non BJP parties confer themselves as secular. But a large section of the population, including me, believes that though India is a secular state the concept of secularism doesnot exist in Indian politics. Only concept which work is that of vote bank politics and nobody is bothered about anybodies communal sentiments

It is clear that all thies parties have no moral value. They are trying all sort of degraded politics . By hook or crook they want to be in power wharever may be the qualition of the central govt. They do not care for the people.

The very fact that the process and to make a decision on a riot incidence has taken 25 years shows the commitment it has (not) shown.

In public meetings they may go on condemning the attack but practically no justice has been delivered to proove that they work hard for justice.

Why only 84 riots we are talking about? what happened to babri demolition culprits? what happened to criminals of Godra riots? We should not forget the siks were silent when they wanted to have seperate nation. How many innocent people have been killed by pro Kalistan terrorist. Nobody is talking about that. Who stopped kalistan terrorist? Its Indira ghandhi who has to pay her life to keep India intact. If not for Indira Ghandhi we would have had now another neighbouring country called KHALISTAN.
