After
10 long years, the India judiciary has woken up from its sleep. Out of the 2
important and right verdicts, namely Kasab’s death sentence and secondly the
Naroda Pati massacre, were passed by the apex court of India. The Naroda
victims will finally be at peace as justice will be awarded to them.
Maya Kodnani along with 32 other
convicts was accused for the 2002 Godhra train slaughter. This verdict is
regarded as landmark one. It is for the first time that an Indian court has ever
convicted a sitting MLA — Maya Kodnani who was also a minister in Narendra Modi’s
government 2007- 2009. She was accused for mob aggression against members of a
religious community. All the 32 convicts should be punished, particularly, Maya
Kodnani who despite being a woman had lead to such a bloodshed which included
more of women and children. Not only has this but also, later, case of gang
rape and sexual harassment were observed.
If Kasab is guilty of killing innocent Indians as are the Godhra case convicts.
They should be punished for their heinous crime and then and only then justice
will be served. These convicts do not deserve a place in the society.
Sadly, this ‘stunning
verdict’ took 10 years to punish the accused. Our judicial system is a long way
road to be entirely justfull at the right moment. But the brighter side is that
justice still prevails in India. Justice delayed is at least better than
justice denied.
