From the disciplined and supposedly incorrupt party the BJP was once supposed to be, in the last ten years it has slowly lost that sheen. Some say, it is because of many from other parties joining, and others say, that these are the activities of fringe elements! While many say that absolute power attracts such problems.
Whatever be the reason, what is your verdict, guilty or not-guilty?

It was a midnight call that woke me ten years ago. A call from my wife who was on holiday in New York, “Bob, mummy passed away in her sleep!”
I was devastated. I was alone at home, with the whole family in America. “Ma,” I cried, “I’m sorry I didn’t come with the others to visit you!”

It wasn’t the brutal whipping by guards, nor torture by prison officials, prisoners were afraid of, but the horror of solitary confinement.
They were dragged screaming from their cells, to be alone with themselves for twenty- four hours, quite often a week, or sometimes for very, very long periods of time.
Solitary confinement was a cruel punishment, to be left alone with themselves!

Just heard that bail has been granted to two activists after six and a half years in jail!
They claim they were framed because they disagreed with the establishment.
If that’s the case it’s sad because the greatest gift a leader can gift himself or herself, is to gift oneself a team who have the freedom to disagree with the leader.
