		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;When all fails, look towards the Supreme Court. You may surely get your remedy at that forum.&#8221; True that. The Supreme Court yesterday played a diplomatic card in appealing to the Pakistani Government to release all prisoners who have already spent their prison terms and/or have been unlawfully detained in that country. Quoting Faiz, Justices [...]

		<description><![CDATA[With each passing day, my conviction that the Supreme Court of India has gone beserk in its handling of issues gets confirmed to a greater degree. What was the Court thinking when it admitted the PIL by Soli Sorabjee asking the centre to implement rules for better equipment and reforms to the police ? The [...]
