A news report says:
New Delhi, November 6: : In the wake of Raj Thackeray-led MNS party's hate campaign against North Indians and non-Marathis, the Supreme Court on Thursday struck a patriotic note by saying that ‘all of us are Indians’ and there is no difference between people coming from various regions.
"What's the difference between North Indians and Indians. All of us are Indians," a Bench of Justices B N Aggrawal and G S Singhvi quipped, while posting for Monday, a PIL seeking judicial inquiry into the killing of a Bihari youth Rahul Raj in a police encounter and the murder of another North Indian in Mumbai last month.
The expression "struck a patriotic note" is appropriate.
For by saying "We Are All Indians" the court has evoked the majestic idea of The Collective.
But Law is a technical subject.
I would have preferred a technically accurate response to this petition.
Which should have read - "We Are All Individuals."
So all Individuals, irrespective of anything, have their lives, liberties and properties protected under law.
The court has been patriotic.
But our understanding of the Law has not improved.
What's going on in maharashtra is idiotic, senseless and an open declaration of war against individual and property rights. So, if a person from hungary or south africa wanted to settle in maharashtra, would the MNS have the right to kick them out?(going by the skewed logic of the judges). The world is the domain of each and every individual, and true development can only happen in such an environment.
