Sujeel has hit the nail on the head. LK Advani and his rath yatra which culminated in the Babri masjid incident, is singularly responsible for fomenting communal hatred in India in the last two decades. This led to the Mumbai riots, the bomb blasts, Gujarat riots, more Mumbai blasts, 11 July train blasts and many more such incidents elsewhere. Top Shiv Sainiks were indicted in the Justice Srikrishna Commission report but they have got away scot free. The less said about Gujarat state, the better. Today's news reports that the Supreme Court has directed some petitioners to file a detailed affidavit about the Maharashtra govt failure to prosecute the accused in the Mumbai riots,and that thereupon the apex court could intervene as it did in the Best Bakery case. This is good news no doubt, but it is a crying shame that the intervention of the apex court is required at every stage to ensure justice, albeit belated.
