"The slow action or no action on the part of successive state governments to charge the Shiv Sena leaders who are accused of engineering the Mumbai riots dilutes the impact of this glorious moment of legal history."
THIS IS NOT TRUE. Shivsena leaders NEVER engineered the riots they ONLY reacted to the riots with great force. They had to as state machinary failed to react and control muslim crowds!. So, rediff should not publish such crap. Anyways, this article seems to be written with vested interest as I don't see what lessons this fake reporter has learnt from this case.
THESE ARE THE LESSONS LEARNT: 1. We NEED laws like TADA and POTA to try anti nationals. 2. We need to deliver justice much faster 3. There should not be any sympathy for anti nationals 4. Anti national should be severly punished 5. Last but not least, no one should trust leftist media such as rediff, ToI and the likes.

dont know where u were during the riots, i was 14 and i saw it all in front of me. your comments are really funny- never engineered only reacted to riots with great force- and muslim crowds' how many muslims stay in mumbai in the total crowd? areas were put on curfew and all ends seales so that muslim areas were cut off from all supplies and than truck loads of shiv seniks!! who were shouting victory to shiv sena came in chopped kids and everyone and than went back. i am not tryin to say hindus were bad and muslims were bad etc. even some muslim mullahs were shouting slogans to attack and kill from the mosque and the same evening he was on television along with other religious leaders pleading for peace. details to back my comments- shiv sena shaka gol deval mullah- shouting from phool gali masjid ,name- maulana kashmiri. i agree with the lessons learnt u have mentioned, also punish- narshimha rao, Up government- mumbai police, shiv sena leaders dawood etc are just plain excuses of all the politicians. educate grow and understand the politics. you will hear a lot of storied about the mumbai riots from all the people suffering.

What the justice system and government can not do, we as Indian can do. Only love can bring the peace not hate or revenge. We need to forget the past and look forward to make India strong.
Shiv Sena initially was anti South Indians, then become anti Muslim. This is their political compulsion. Now they become anti non-marathi and they support only marathi.
Shiv Sena doesn't represent Hindus. It's a pure regional outfit and must be punished by law only.

By ur article, if any one feels victimised then the party can react with whatever force he is bale to muster. Come on. Killing of innocents by any religion in India is anti national.If so called political parties can unilaterally take decision to punish a group of people we should be living in a Iraq not India. This should be a land of law, which is equal to everyone.
