The Supreme Court’s outburst against suspended BJP leader Nupur Sharma allegedly “for igniting tension with her comments on Prophet Muhammad” has given a new lease of life to the Left-Liberal cabal in the country. The Left-Liberals were lying low ever since a Hindu tailor Kanhaya Lal was hacked to death on camera by Islamic radicals, as there were widespread allegations that their stance provide conducive shield to Islamists.
The Left-Liberal ecosystem is celebrating the apex court’s observation that called for her tender apology “to the whole country”.
“The way she has ignited emotions across the country. This lady is single-handedly responsible for what is happening in the country,” said the judges.
But the judges seemed to be ignoring the provocation which made her utter the statement. Moreover, she was only quoting from the Islamic scriptures. The court which turned its ire against Sharma did not mention about the role of Islamists like Muhammad Zubair who added fuel to fire by dog whistling the issue to the Islamists who went berserk with death and rape threats to Sharma.
Nupur Sharma’s comments, made during a TV debate earlier this month, sparked massive protests in India and several Gulf countries summoned Indian diplomats to issue severe reprimands.
Justice Surya Kant’s observation had triggered sharp reaction on the social media. Justice Kant said, “We saw the debate on how she was incited. But the way she said all this and later says she was a lawyer it is shameful. She should apologise to the whole country.”
The allegation of the Left-Liberal cabal has been that even the judiciary is compromised. The strong observation against Nupur Sharma might have helped regain their faith in the judiciary, it seems.
