Civil Society’s role
Two civil society movements in the last quarter of a century shook the conscience of the nation.
Two civil society movements in the last quarter of a century shook the conscience of the nation.
The social activist, who once spearheaded a campaign against corruption along with Kejriwal, nevertheless added that he was pained by the development.
Earlier in the day, Hazare slammed Kejriwal saying that power induced intoxication had made him deviate from the ideology and ideals of the movement that led to the creation of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Anna Hazare wrote, "This is the first time I am writing to you after you became Chief Minister. The recent news about the Delhi government on the liquor scam is disheartening."
Unlike the first two, the third mass movement has no leaders. Events have shown that the enactment is dangerously divisive, and the CAA is the forerunner to the National Citizenship Register and National Population Register which the government is committed to implement. Once implemented, the nation could witness the largest statelessnes crisis the world has ever witnessed.
'Today is the Constitution Day and today it is also the foundation day of Aam Aadmi Party. This is not a coincidence,' said Kejriwal in his tweet.
He said that he learnt about the threat to his life from the media following which he lodged a complaint with the Parner Police Station in Ahmednagar.
Days after the SC criticised the government over the delay in appointment of a Lokpal and issued a deadline for the same, a selection committee comprising the PM finalised Ghose’s name.
Justice PC Ghose certainly has all the right credentials but can there be any ducking of the question if the “system” will enable him to deliver what he might seek to achieve.
Ghose, who is currently the a member of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), was also a former judge of the Calcutta High Court and former chief justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
