Six Things: Bilkis Bano Convicts Being Sent Back to Prison Is a Verdict on Much More
The order draws into focus the centre’s complicity, Modi’s silence on this and reminds India of why cases were shifted out of Gujarat. BJP MLA’s 'sanskari Brahmin' remarks for convicts meets reality and shows that women need to push for justice, the state won’t.

Vajpayee Govt Didn't Object to UK Report That 2002 Riots Were 'Pre-Planned', Cops 'Told Not to Act'
The minutes of an April 16, 2002 phone call between former external affairs minister Jaswant Singh and his UK counterpart reveal the BJP-led government only protested the leak of the report and its claimed death toll. No criticism was made of the UK report's critical observations about the role played by the Gujarat police and by political organisations connected to Modi in the anti-Muslim violence.
