[HumJanenge] Re: Why IPC and CrPC should not exist in Free India

Dear Friends,

I am in receipt of the following 3 comments in a message with some detailed stories. 

The comments are "(1) people who expose the mafia will be clamped down upon with court suits, (2) what educational mafia is upto and (3) see what privatisation of education is leading to......

In my view IPC and CrPC are in the core of all the problems faced in the system of democratic governance of this country and I am surprised why much more intelligent and elderly people than me did not attempt to get these laws repealed already. The laws still exist today in the same letter and spirit as the Britishers framed them for success of their Raj by punishing the Indian people. They were not democrats and were not required to be that for administering a Colony. Hence the toughest of laws against the Indians were the need of the hour for them. Our present Rulers are no different from the Britishers. After all A Ruler is a Ruler-White, grey or black is the colour of the skin , not the color of right to Rule. 

And this is not true about Education or Health or corruption or black money etc. One takes one step and if that one step does not suit the Rulers one is behind bars for the unfounded charges of tresspassing the law in some manner or the other. One should not be surprised if he goes behind bars with broken ribs, hands or legs etc or he may reach the other world straight away like many good and well eaning people have been sent. A Jharkhand court has recently ordered death to awell known innocent cultural activist named "Jeetan marandi" who has nothing to do with the crime committed by somebody of the same name. Similar is the case with others too. 

In my view a movement is required to repeal the IPC and Cr PC and replace them by an appropriate law for proper Rule of Law.
