If it were an accident due to mechancal failure we can agree the judgement delivered was fair.
What would the 5 Lakh fine imposed on the culprit mean to an affluent family - PEANUTS. Alister's alcohol bill an year could be 5 lakhs a year.
But at the same time see how the blind judge has evaluated the cost of lives of pavement dwellers. 5 lakhs for 7 lives. Unbelievable.
These criminals were drunk to the hilt and rammed their vehicle in the wee hours of the morning killing those innocent labourers.
These family members of the culprits should pay 10 lakhs to each of those killed snd that too would be only a small compensation.
These spoilt-children should be behing bars for three years so that they know the value of money and time. More than any thing they will learn to value others' lives, comforts and discomforts.
