It was a privilege to coordinate Prime Minister Christopher Luxon's visit to Summerset Richmond Ranges, to see a close friend and long-standing supporter of the National Party among our residents.

I was in Poona last few days. The recent tragic accident involving a rich builders minor son drunk on money alcohol & speed that took two innocent lives was the hot topic of discussion.
1. The minor boy spends Rs. 48000 on alcohol & food in a pub.
2. Then in a drunken stupor drives a 2.5 crore Porsche at high speed killing 2 innocent people.
3. Is thrashed by bystanders on the spot before being picked up by the police.
4. Local politicians & bigwigs get into action. In the cop station is well taken care of, fed pizza. Delay in taking blood samples for alcohol levels.
5. A judge grants him immediate bail with ridiculous conditions as writing an essay, community service, no repeat of such an offence etc.
6. There is huge public uproar in the media & social media. The Juvenile justice board cancels bail the boy is back in a remand home till June the 5th.
5. Father arrested on charges of neglect & providing intoxicants.
6. Now a driver is produced who claims he was driving the car and not the drunk boy.
In the past many similar cases of rich drunk folks killing others on the road in many metropolitan cities including one wherein my friend @MihikaWahi of #Gurgaon is still fighting for justice with no end in sight. She lost her husband while the two drunk boys involved and their families are on with their lives.
The main culprit here is the corrupt system
Parents, Police, Lawyers, Administration, Politicians , Businessmen, the Govt departments all who twist the system for personal greed.
Unless the law treats this as murder and hangs the people responsible (in this case both the father who allowed it & the minor son who did it) and imprisonment of others involved we will continue to hear of such cases

This couple riding across the world were beaten up and she was gang raped last night in #Jharkhand hope the culprits are soon caught and severely punished…this isn’t India and our culture of #Athithidevobhava but an extremely shameful incident for us all especially when we are promoting #India as a top tourist destination
