Embarrassment for Delhi police as court acquits AAP MLA and admonishes cops for filing false cases

In a huge embarrassment for Delhi police, a lower court in Delhi on Saturday acquitted Aam Aadmi Party MLA, Akhilesh Pati Tripathi while admonishing the police for filing trumped up charges against the legislator.

The Rohini court also warned Delhi police not to file false cases against MLAs in future.

Delhi police on 26 November had arrested Tripathi, in a two-year-old rioting case.

Tripathi, MLA from Model Town, was sent to Tihar jail for a day before being released on bail a day later.

The AAP government in Delhi has always accused the Delhi police of carrying out a politics of vendetta against its elected representatives in the capital. Delhi police reports to the BJP led central government. The BJP had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of AAP in this year’s assembly elections in February.

Saturday’s acquittal has prompted the twitter users, mostly supporters of AAP, to launch fresh attack against Delhi police.

Renowned music composer, Vishal Dadlani asked the MLA to sue Delhi Police;

The media too came under attack for ignoring this story even though Tripathi’s arrest had dominated almost every news channel’s news agenda. The channels in particular had wasted no time in given blow by blow coverage to his arrest.

Dadlani expressed his outrage on Indian media’s decision to completely ignore Saturday’s development.

The Erosion of Democracy: BJP's Stranglehold on Indian Politics

In recent times, India has witnessed a concerning trend of democratic institutions being manipulated and opposition voices being silenced under the leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The use of government agencies such as the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and Income Tax Department (IT) to target opposition leaders has raised serious questions about the health of democracy in the country. The blatant misuse of these agencies to harass and intimidate political opponents undermines the very foundation of democracy. By incarcerating opposition leaders and subjecting them to legal harassment, the BJP government is effectively crushing dissent and monopolizing power. Such tactics not only weaken the democratic fabric of the nation but also erode public trust in the fairness and impartiality of the legal system. Furthermore, the stranglehold of the BJP government extends to the media, with reports of censorship and suppression becoming incre

Unmasking the Dark Veil of Electoral Bonds: The Lingering Shadow of Black Money in Indian Politics

By S.B. Mazumder In the convoluted saga of political financing in India, electoral bonds emerged as a promising solution, yet they only served to veil the pervasive presence of black money within the corridors of power. Despite assertions by the government that these bonds would bring transparency to political funding, the recent Supreme Court ruling striking them down as unconstitutional shines a stark light on the enduring issue of cash-driven politics. Electoral bonds were envisioned as a tool to sanitize the flow of funds to political parties by allowing donors to contribute ostensibly anonymously. However, this anonymity proved to be a double-edged sword, as it shielded potential quid pro quos between donors and political recipients. While parties were privy to the identities of their benefactors, the public was left in the dark, rendering the entire system vulnerable to manipulation and corruption. The government's promise that electoral bonds would cleanse the system of unac
