Editorial-1

 

Dangerously fanciful

 

The Gujrat High court defamation sound in like a horrific crime.

What the editorial talks about?

ð  It talks about recent Judgement by Gujrat high court over Rahul Gandhi’s defamation case.

ð  About  Gujrat High Court Judgement

The court observed the offence as grave and the comment affecting a large community than just PM Modi.

ð  What is editorial’s view

Editorial rebuks Court’s observation that the statement hurt large public sentiment.

It also is against of court’s direction based on that country needs purity in politics. The court had cited that 10 similar cases were going against Rahul Gandhi and one of which is filed by Y.D. savarkar’s grand son.

During 2019, general election campaigns Rahul Gandhi had remarked that “why all thieves have ‘Modi’ in their surname?”

BJP MLA reached court citing it was demeaning a large section of Modi community.

 

Editorial-2

 

Blurred lines

 

The U.S. decision to send custer munitions to Ukraine blurs moral lines.

ð  What the editorial is all about?

US Govt has decided to send cluster munitions to Ukraine. The editorial talks about this decision’s impact an war and moral turpitude related to it.

ð  About cluster munitions?

There bombs are designed to explode an impact, but many of it remains “divd” which can explode later. And there “dud” do heavy airlian damages.

Convention on cluster munitions says not to are it during war times as it causes large civilion causalities.

ð  Probable reason’s behind USA’s decisions Ukraine’s counter ofensiver against Russia started few weeks ago. Ukraine and its western allies were expecting that they will make swift move and recocuply areas under Russia control easily.

But it could not occur because of Russia’s strong defence. Ukraine only gained few areas of south eastern region even that an heavy cost. It was under this desperation that USA decided to bring cluster munitions

ð  Consequences

 

USA is doing nothing less than Russian war crimes and the morality ground seems to disappear.
