    A delegation of Congress leaders presented the NHRC with evidence of the atrocities against the citizens of UP by the State Govt., which has gone to war against its own people. The NHRC must act decisively to protect the idea of India & the Constitutional rights of our citizens.

    In today’s Hindustan Times, Dr Abhishek Singhvi and I argue how every single one of the four pillars of Amit Shahs case for the CAB is legally and morally unsound.

    Amit Shah forgets that it was post partition India that gave itself a Constitution reaffirming the values of secularism. In fact, he consistently demonstrates that he has forgotten about the Constitution entirely!

    Mr ji and I write in today’s about the dubious legal backing for the NRC. Our contention; Contrary to what suggests, there is absolutely no legal compulsion to visit an arbitrary ‘’Assam style’ NRC on the rest of the nation.

    Amit we do not have the luxury to despair. There will always be people who sow seeds of division. India has always triumphed over them. This country was founded on the principle that the people of India are one. No one, no matter how seemingly invincible, can change that.

    I used to think that Modi/Shah ruined India. I was wrong. It's the other way round. Because India is ruined, we elected Modi/Shah. RSS's decades long project of hate, poison and divisions eventually worked.
