Riddles of Ayodhya Ram Temple: Consecration of Bhagwan Ram’s idol, but which one?

Shamsul Islam -
Apart from an assertion of a false narrative – Goswami Tuslidas who authored Ramacharitmanas 37 years after the so-called destruction of the temple by Babar makes no mention of the ‘demolition’—the event on January 22 at Ayodhya involves a problematic consecration ceremony, and is in fact a crass political gimmick meant to bolster one person alone, Prime Minister, Narendra Modi

Vikas Parasram Meshram -

Justice once more for Bilkis Bano, but what now lies ahead?

CJP Legal Research Team -
Bilkis Bano has fought a hard, challenging battle. As one of the 1,958 women Muslim survivors of the targeted violence in Gujarat in 2002, she can now breathe some sighs of relief, if the convicts are “found” by the Gujarat police and report to prison by January 22 (the deadline set by the Supreme Court). There is also a possibility that these convicts now approach the Maharashtra government for remission under section 432 of the CrPC
