Now imagine if @vikramsampath had not taken the legal route, how would this web of fraud and lies been exposed? This is a lesson. No matter how much we criticize the judicial system, it is still effective and robust. Approach the courts instead of ranting on social media.

Calcutta is not for everyone. U want your cities clean & green; stick to Delhi. You want your cities, rich and impersonal; go to Bombay. You want them high-tech and full of draught beer; Bangalore’s your place. But if you want a city with a soul, come to Calcutta.” – @virsanghvi

At the age of 92, Sr. Adv. K. Parasaran stood for hours together, days in a row& argued the Ram Janmabhoomi case. The judges, requested him to sit& present his submissions but he did not. Without this level of commitment& respect for the profession, one must not enter litigation.
