Supreme court is Supreme!!

There was this incident on Supreme court of India days back when respected justice Chamleswar took strong views against a Additional Secretory of Rajasthan Govt for appearing in court room in Simple dress of formal Pink shirt and Grey pant.
All over the media this incident is reported & accepted as some thing which is just and right. 


But Indian in me is not able to understand the said objection of respected Justice.
Respected Justice Chamleswar ; had said that their is a dress code for Beurocrats , & that should be followed. He assumed that their is. 


It was later clarified in court by Advocate of Rajasthan Govt that their existed no such dress code but the dress should be decent and mannerfull.


Wearing a Formal Shirt with a Formal pant is a natural dress acceptable in Formal settings. Additions of Coat and Tie, is not appropriate for Hot and Humid climate country like India.

Perhaps since respected judges since seldom come outside AC court rooms, AC cars, & AC bungalow , they seldom know the heat & humidity a normal folk especially in Delhi has to suffer.
For them temp of city is a number a fact a info, they rarely feel it in full glory.
So it was very ok for justice to add Coat and Tie in Formal setup as a necessity.
We indians , fought against Englishman ,and won but lost our battle against English culture. When supreme court of this ancient country with history & culture of Min 5000 years says that without following a Western Dress code ; (which is inappropriate for Indian climate & was invented in Cold & Snow laden climates of Europe); is must to hear a case of importance in court , then I am sure that society as a whole need some introspection.
All over the world these relics of past is recognised as unnecessary baggage and being shunned. All over the world Justice are moving away from wearing traditional Wigs which came from British Court system. There is a culture and climate of each country. Though principal of Law is same all over the world but method of its proceedings is a thing which should be customized according to locality


Bar & Court room dress code is their call to decide, but for a Official appearing in front of court or a witness should be free to have a Decent and respectable dress to wear which is comfortable for him, and appropriate for local climate and culture.


This is my opinion on this. What's ur take?
And yes here is news link.

What the Country has given me!

I often meet such people, full of frustrations , indifference and sometimes venom against the country and culture in general. They often argue , why should I care, what the country has given to me? . Whenever their support is asked for any good social effort they tend to envenomate their hatred. One of them even argued that I didn't gave application to be born in this country! So why I am expected to do this or that for sake of anything more then me and myself? Dude please acknowledge that you are living under security envelop of this country only. The general Security everyone enjoys inside a State is due to combined efforts of State and Society in the form of various defence forces that are ready to protect you from outside as well as inside danger. The very fact that you never needed to learn art of fighting seriously & still only with stroke of pen or some odd 9-5job you are surviving well enjoying ur evening with a nice drink, is only possible due to fact that th...

A thousand year anger!

India is an ancient country. We have a history of 5000 years in record. Right from the day Vedas was written , to the writing of Constitution of Modern independent India. Much has been changed , but there was something that was constant in all those 5000 years , and that was the hierarchy of Caste system. Yes it was part of Sanatana Dharma, the Hindu way of life and it has survived with it to today. From Manu to Mayawati , this notion of Caste has seen so much. And it is also true that it has lost its real intention somewhere in between , it is very correct notion in my opinion ; that it was never meant to be a Oppressive or suppressive system to ristrict some groups of people and to give sole right to some others, but it was made to simplify things, to simplify way of life . But , if modern thinkers see it as Negativity as Hurdle to all round development and theory of equality, then it is also true that there must be some thing rotten in this system from day 1 that came stingin...
