And lo! The Second defeat of RSS / BJP in the Mighty Hills! The BJP got played out and found a double political omelette upon its face. The Supreme Court has again proved that it is the REAL Institution that can protect DMOCRACY, a Guardian of Indian Constitution against fanatic communal manipulators who had played a day-light political heist in Arunachal and earlier in Uttrakhand. The august House of Justice has delivered a major blow to the RSS / BJP government at the Centre and restored Congress government in Arunachal Pradesh after quashing the President’s Rule.
A five-judge Constitution Bench, in an unanimous and unprecedented verdict, quashed all the decisions of the Governor that had led to imposition of the President’s Rule in the state, calling his actions as “illegal” and violative of the Constitutional provisions. The bench held that status quo ante as prevailing on December 15, 2015 — when Nabam Tuki headed the Congress government in the state — shall be restored.
“All steps and decisions taken by Arunachal Pradesh legislative assembly pursuant to the Governor’s decisions are unsustainable and the same are therefore set aside,” held the bench.
Following the decisions by Governor J P Rajkhowa, the Assembly session was preponed, a new speaker was elected and later based on his report, the President’s Rule was imposed. Even as the top court was hearing the matter, the proclamation was lifted and rebel Congress leader Kalikho Pul was sworn in as the Chief Minister of the new government.
This is the first order by the Supreme Court reinstating a government in a state even after it had been replaced by a new government.
The Ex and now Restored Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh, Mr Nabam Tuki said reacting to the decision: “the court has saved the country and constitution. We have got justice.”
The decision of the court once again ensures the country that Cowards, manipulators, and backstabbers who encourage to destabilise the democracy, still have someone to fear about. The BJP leadership claims that it was the internal matter of Congress. However, BJP had openly encouraged and supported the Congress rebellion. The opportunistic MLA’s of Congress took the risks that they could have done without – they don’t have to.
The BJP acted as posture in shadows. It was an Old BJP trick, a strategy that let others get dirty. We step into the light when it’s safe. Players and manipulators always drive toward self-interest, secretly. Even when making others look bad.
The BJP’s Ruse: Let at the moment, the weaker Congress, make a further divide in its ranks and their elected ones do the dirty work?
The Supreme Court got the smell of the stench of manipulation and created a high standard of safety for times to come.
Let the RSS beware ! The Democracy is still alert and throbbing !
