Better to be banned by Twitter than be imprisoned by the Indian government, surely?

  I still believe rule of law exists in India. I would also revolt the moment something otherwise happens to it.

      What makes you think I don't speak up against it or wont vote against it? The three links you posted don't require me to take up arms :) 1) It is a regrettable event in which courts have did the right thing. 2) Sorry, I cannot read it. 3) It is an opinion column in an online publication.

        I really have no idea if you have or haven't. I was just responding to your assertion that you would "revolt the moment something otherwise happens to it". - https://www.ft.com/content/de6c9ce7-35d9-489b-be59-02f7dbfb1a19 https://www.ft.com/content/de6c9ce7-35d9-489b-be59-02f7dbfb1... - https://jacobinmag.com/2020/10/india-narendra-modi-criminalization-dissent-democracy https://jacobinmag.com/2020/10/india-narendra-modi-criminali... - https://www.newframe.com/extreme-hindu-nationalists-smother-dissent-in-india/ https://www.newframe.com/extreme-hindu-nationalists-smother-... - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/feb/01/uttar-pradesh-india-activists-false-arrest-torture-custody-citizenship-amendment-act https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/feb/01/uttar-pradesh-... - https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/14/indias-political-prisoners-encounter-deaths-as-covid-rages https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/14/indias-political-pr... - https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/bloody-mary/have-a-dialogue-with-young-dissenters-dont-jail-them/ https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/bloody-mary/have-a...

          Well this thread is not really interesting, But those three links you posted do not show there is no rule of law in India. Nor do I believe that to be the case currently.

            Can you explain how elected legislators from kashmir were arrested without charges for a year when Kashmir's government lost its status as a democracy?
