  1. What does the death of a jailed Jesuit priest say about India's democracy under Modi?

    Stan Swamy had recently published a study of 3,000 people jailed for being members of banned Maoist groups. He found that 97% of them had no such affiliation and that many of their trials were held without lawyers, in a language they didn't understand. He'd filed a case on their behalf in the state court of Jharkhand, where he lived. All of this had embarrassed the government, he said.

  11. While A Journalist Spends Time in Jail For Doing His Duty, An Old, Ailing Man Even Unable To Even Sip Water & Dies Behind Bars, What happened to Article 21? Justice Rekha Sharma

    During the seminar hosted today by Campaign for Judicial Accountability and Reforms (CJAR) at ISIL, Delhi, former Delhi High Court Judge Rekha Sharma lamented that the Supreme Court has lost its credibility in the eyes of the public.

  16. The Elgar Parishad 16 Must Not Be Forgotten

    The case represents what the government can do to well-meaning people who speak up against atrocities, and who stand up for the weak and dispossessed. For this reason alone, they are seen as enemies of the state and kept in prison for as long as the government can manage, writes Aakar Patel.

  20. On the road to 2047, the state of our democracy cannot be a distant concern

    Even as our society and nation lurch towards a future in which even the rudimentary semblances of democracy and decency are defied, we are increasingly witness to a shrinking support base of persons who can struggle and assert the need for these indispensable norms.

    Stan had, during interrogation, claimed that the evidence against him was ‘interpolated’, as he wrote in his book I Am Not A Silent Spectator; but NIA did not believe him. Now a forensic firm has confirmed it.

  34. Pre-trial incarceration for years, on flimsy evidence not put to test when repeatedly denying bail,
    that too when a person is sick/elderly is so, so wrong. Any State that relies on draconian #uapa to deny fair trial or jail indefinitely, uses police to file charge that it cannot prove - cannot be a democracy. Shame, shame #india

  36. This Republic Day, you're going to have NIA officers and lawyers along with judges getting Padma awards for the murder of , although the presidential proclamation will read "public service".

  37. Such a brutal barefaced murder of the gentle, selfless activist committed brazenly by agents of the state, by judges refusing even bail, and by media promoting falsehood. Surely this must become a turning point for change, unless justice is completely dead in India.

    We just murdered an 84 year old man who had spent his life working for the disadvantaged & marginalised.

    It's not just Modi & Shah who have his blood on their hands. Every judge who allowed this ghastly farce, & all of us who failed to stop it, are responsible.

    RIP Stan Swamy
