The reason for my annoyance is , Binayak is a nationalist intellectual. He has selflessly done good work for common people’s well-being for many years. We have never heard of him giving any anti-national speech. In fact, he has written against violent terrorism. It is an extremely inferior act to imprison such a person instead of giving him recognition. We have sometimes seen such mockery of justice in the the state Chhattisgarh where he serves people . He was imprisoned for many days without trial. This reflects the perversion of thought of the state.<br /><br />First of all, no thinking person can accept the reasons behind his life-term. The reason of his arrest, i.e. he delivered a Maoists letter to another, even if he had done that, doesn’t show any treason against the state. Secondly the evidence the state government has provided raises many doubts. Finally, when there is no abetment of violence, in that scenario if someone says anything anti-political, to term him as seditious defies logic. There is a huge reason to assume that law has been misused here.<br /><br />This legal verdict has taken place in a state where we have many times observed lack of justice. There is reason to hope that when this verdict of lower court reaches higher court, the higher court will correct this verdict. But if that doesn’t happen, still this case will definitely reach the supreme court. Indian Supreme court has demonstrated for a long time that they are efficient and firm in preserving civilian and human rights. There is surely reason to think that Binayak Sen will get justice in Supreme Court. I do not think that misuse of law will last. But many in India and abroad are annoyed and angry at this misuse of law. We should highlight this truth. I have firm belief that finally Binayak sen’s great work will find recognition and honor. And the attempt to hand him punishment instead of recognition will fail. I hope this change won’t take a long time.<br /><br />Regarding Binayak Sen’s mistrial, many have asked me if I agree with the many causes raised by Maoists for tribal welfare. My reply is there is many scope for tribal welfare in India. Because for a long term they have been treated unfairly. I am not aware of what the Maoists have exactly said. So I can’t say anything conclusively regarding this topic. But I have seen many research reports regarding this unfair treatment. I myself have written on this topic. There is no reason to be surprised if Maoists are saying something about this subject. The truth doesn’t turn into a lie simply because Maoists are saying this. Then again , even if it is correct that Maoists are speaking the truth, that doesn’t prove that Maoists’ political thinking and the methodology adopted is justified. But this matter has no connection with Binayak Sen’s mistrial.<br /><br />He has been given life-term imprisonment without any reason, this is the main point.<br />(translated by UNITED INDIAN)AmartyaSen on BinayakSennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-90331450287372644882010-12-22T19:31:29.287+05:302010-12-22T19:31:29.287+05:30@Aditya
