Thank you Chief Justice UU. Lalit, as you demit office, for your and Justice Bhat’s stirring, historic and erudite dissent in the EWS case. You defended the Constitution’s mission of social equality, inclusion and a representative state. You spoke truth to power.@LiveLawIndia

@vdsatheesan may kindly correct your repeated statements to the Kerala Assembly that Art 21 protects personal property. It does not. It secures life and personal liberty. Its 18 words should be known by rote by every political worker. @RahulGandhi

As a law educator, I hang my head in shame. No one we teach should, as lawyer or judge, ever be capable of unjustly, illegally and mercilessly jailing an old, sick man on unsubstantiated police allegations,denying him liberty even on his death bed. WE failed.@LiveLawIndia
