Battle lines drawn between the brazen and the courageous

We have already moved dangerously close to an absolute monarch’s regime where slightest criticism of the Supreme Leader can invoke serious charges of lese majeste. They are welcome like every one else to their opinions, but when it comes out with a report pronouncing that the number of Hindus in the population has declined by almost 8 per cent in the past 65 years and Muslims have increased by over 40 per cent in the same period, one starts getting worried. A senior leader of the BJP has lost no time in alleging that ‘their lordships that be’ have become parties in the campaign by granting interim bail to the Delhi CM. Ill-informed arguments submitted by the learned Solicitor General regarding interim bail to Arvind Kejriwal illustrate how even the constitutional law officers have lost objectivity.
