Justice Delayed Justice Denied: Once Again, The Supreme Court has Failed to Protect the Right of an Innocent


The majority of people in India have fallen prey to the lies of the BJP and now to the NDA, where it seems a coalition of immoral individuals has aligned with the corrupt BJP on promises of quick cash infusions for their states. These leaders seem to expect large contracts and financial benefits similar to those awarded to Adani, rather than focusing on the nation's welfare.

Today, I heard comments from the Supreme Court of India during the bail hearing of Mr. Kejriwal, where the court hinted that the High Court (HC) had erred in denying bail. However, the Supreme Court (SC) seemed reluctant to correct this error immediately. The SC, being the ultimate decision-maker, should act decisively to stop any injustice if it perceives an error by a lower court, prioritizing the protection of the innocent over procedural concerns. This hesitation indirectly hands a victory to the corrupt Modi government and the Enforcement Directorate (ED), at the expense of the innocent accused. "Justice delayed is justice denied" — have these judges not read this during their academic period? If the Supreme Court of India does not understand this term, how can it expect any courts in India to abide by this rule in granting justice? Here, innocent people have been held on cooked-up charges and the court is allowing this to continue.

The SC could have reviewed the detailed 28-page verdict of the lower court that initially granted bail to Mr. Kejriwal and recognized that the HC's actions were politically motivated under pressure from the central government. By not doing so, the SC missed an opportunity to deny corrupt officials an undeserved victory. Given that the current parliamentary session is underway, Mr. Kejriwal's release could have strengthened the INDIA bloc and challenged the NDA government more effectively.

It is concerning that the apparent injustices are so evident from afar, yet the courts in India seem blind to them, or at least give that impression. This reflects poorly on governance in India, where leaders within the NDA bloc, motivated by greed, fail to see or acknowledge the corruption. It is troubling how anyone in India can trust a government that uses stolen funds to buy votes and seats.

The Supreme Court of India should establish a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to scrutinize the backdoor deals involved in forming this government. Only through such measures can the true extent of these corrupt practices be exposed and addressed. This call for action is essential to restore faith in India's judiciary and political systems, ensuring that justice prevails and that governance is conducted with integrity and transparency.
