Don’t tolerate law breakers
Nobody has the right to take the law into his own hands. The incidents of
lynching and assault by cow vigilantes have gone up. It highlights the gravity
of the situation. A zero tolerance policy needs to be adopted towards lynching. If Modi is sincere about not ruining all
the good work done, he needs to act fast and come down very severely on those who take law into their hands.
These are social issues that should better be left to local
administrations to handle. They have different connotations at different
places. PM’s single statement should suffice to inform the public about the
nation's policy. Violence as such must be stopped with firm hand by the law
enforcing agencies without any discrimination or favour.
Hate crimes like Junaid Khan’s murder and so also of Nirbhaya should be
condemned. Such incidents brought decent people out on to the streets in
dignified protest. we don't need to read the constitution to know what is right
and what is wrong, what are the common rights and protections and decencies to
which all Indians - even foreigners passing through - are entitled to as a
matter of course. Prime Minister's statesman like admonition is appreciated by
all the right thinking people. It is the primary duty of Chief Ministers to
ensure that there are no more unfortunate demises.
