Re: [IAC#RG] Sandhiv Pragya Singh Thakur

I think there is a fundamental disconnect here.

Even if they are facilitators, which law stops them from medical treatment

She has a right to medical treatment. 

according to their choice and a fast track court on humanitarian grounds?

I am not aware if prisoners have a right to choose medical treatment. Method, perhaps. Facility or location? I don't think so.

Also, fast track courts are injustice. Why should some cases have special consideration? Are others lesser humans? 

After all, she is a young lady and can't have an endangered existence.

She is hardly the only female prisoner in India. This keeps coming up. WHY must she have special consideration - particularly needs to be answered if we are challenging the course of things in court. 

Do we speak only of Nirbhaya and not of Sadhvi?

Unless you believe Nirbhaya facilitated her own rape, you clearly make no distinction between a person who is victim of a horrendous crime - made possible by huge lapses in how the state functions and a person who stands accused of facilitating an attack on innocents.

Most of the arguments in support of Sadhvi Pragya are ones opposed with massive vitriol by her supporters if religions get reversed.

I refuse to turn citizens my country into "allowed targets" of some religion or the other. No matter which religion. Whoever thinks Hindu crazies and Muslim crazies are not the same thing, simply because they believe their favorite religion has a halo is living in delusion. An attack on the state is an attack on the state. An attack on citizens is an attack on citizens. All bleed red and regardless of religion, it is the defenseless being killed. If you cannot recognize that, and facilitators of attacks from one religion must get special consideration over facilitators of attacks from another religion, you are attacking my country.

This is unworthy for an anti-corruption movement to be spending time over.
