Mrs Pratibha Patil,
President of India,
It's actually shocking to see you trying to immortalize yourself now at the end of your tenure (- a period of 4 years which has been the most pathetic string of years since 1977 - I'm referring to the period of Emergency governance under Smt Indira Gandhi).
You have awarded clemency to twenty men who were awaiting the noose in the death gallows. Have you gone through the individual cases of Madam. You seem to have ticked 20 names positioned chronologically written in a register that looks like a guest-list.
Of course it's a record - but have you or your office consulted the father of the teenager who was gang-raped and burnt alive?
Do you know the very system of Law you have subverted in the most insensitive of ways, requires YOU to discuss your decision on each case with the bereaved family members of those who have been raped, sodomized, strangled, skinned alive, burnt alive, buried alive? And yes, one was cannibalized too, as a prayer to the god protagonist of the religious epic that is part of the "listed material(s) for any process of litigation/prosecution in any Indian Court of Law, including Daman, Deu and the Lakshadeep islands".
I'm quoting from the website of the Supreme Court, Ma'am and the website of the President's Office, India.
What or who has given you the right to subvert the process of the system that makes you the top boss by default?
Have you informed us, the citizens of India, by any official press release issued from the President's Office, or by direct telecast on national television?
Do you know that your chair is supposed to take citizens of India into confidence Before making mockery of any process of tic tac tow/snakes n ladders of a book of 23 volumes that goes by the name of "Indian Penal Code : IPC" (latest edition is 2009 that's what even your website reveals)?
Do you know that the Republic of India has not been made for your whims & choices that you are free to do in some fiefdom in the name of your father?
Are you trying, in your own unique, inimitable way (that's been aweful by the way) to introduce any philosophical discourse into Humankind's history of the 3rd millenium?
Can you forgive terrorists who've brutalised, killed your own ones? Can you really forgive a person with a permanent, Distorted - Religiosity-Complex who can abuse, brutally kill innocent children or women? Can forgiveness change him? A human brain's developing rate is at its lowest after 15 years of human's birth? Can an adult, an actor in past heinous crimes, change his past ways after being forgiven?
Let me give you a short discourse my way around a historical event. People forgave people somewhere deep in their own psyche, that's why Armistice was called in 1918. Very well, better late than never. If only the Same People had committed the Holy Act of Forgiveness (including 2 Bavarian blue-bloods who cried "revenge" as poor ol' Ferdi bit the bullets) 4 yrs before, just after King Ferdinand was killed, 7 million people would've walked alive on Europe, North Africa, & Asia Minor?
Are you willing to preach this nonsense to those who stood and yet clapped, widowed and orphaned, on Armistice Day, 1918? There's a website bearing the names who belong to this list, and are alive.
If you are serious in preaching FORGIVENESS, you should tell school children to FIRST read accounts properly, contemplate over them, exchange individual opinions, come to a consensus before posting the white drafts to the printers', cure their maladies, perversions and psychopathies & other potent instruments of socio-cultural behaviour of inculcating Forgiveness, in your own office to start with..
It would be interesting to watch the jig for free...
(by the way, none of the 20 messiahs have pleaded lunacy in their trials, and 16 of them have not shown any remorse as late as 2 months back, and they believe they have "delivered justice", throwing back the Indian Constitution at your own face. Have you felt the "slap"?
FORGIVENESS IS A VIRTUE. IT'S JUST THAT WE, HUMAN BEINGS HAVE TO EVOLVE TO THAT LEVEL OF VIRTUOSITY TO EARN THE VIRTUE. NO USE READING OUT THE RIG-VEDA TO A RABIED DOG..
(this dark soul is willing to be enlightened, but plz no 2 hour discourse - a terrorising blast might occur right under your chair. It'd be too bad to lose another bum).
