The sensation spread in the Supreme Court of the country on Monday (October 6) when a person threw a shoe at Chief Justice (CJI) BR Gawai. This incident happened for the first time in judicial history, which has shocked the entire country. On this, Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav has reacted strongly and called it an attack on democratic values of India.
Tejashwi Yadav said in his statement that it is not just one person but an attack on the entire judicial system and constitution. He said that when the person sitting in the highest judicial post of the country has to face insults in the court, then it is a matter of concern. This is the same atmosphere that was spread in the country after 2014 under state protection, where hatred and violence were made normal.
Constitutional post in the country is also no longer safe- Tejashwi Yadav
RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav described the incident as a symbol of the Constitution and Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar’s intolerance to the ideology. He said that the Chief Justice comes from the Dalit community and follows the spirit of the Constitution. If such individuals are not safe in constitutional positions, then this question is not only for the judiciary but for the whole country.
Why are the BJP who have anti-Dalit mentality now silent- Tejashwi Yadav
Tejashwi Yadav further said that this shoe has not been thrown on the Chief Justice, but on our Constitution and its author Baba Saheb Ambedkar. He alleged that people who spread hatred in the name of religion are now openly attacking the institutions of the country. Taking a dig at the BJP, he said that why the BJP holding the constitution and anti -Dalit mindset is silent on this incident. Do they find it all right? The dignity of the judiciary is the backbone of our democracy and it is the duty of every citizen to save it.
Democracy will be strengthened only when we respect his institutions
Tejashwi Yadav finally appealed to the countrymen to stand united against such trends which are weakening the constitution and the foundation of justice. He said that democracy will be strong only when we respect its institutions and maintain the dignity of the Constitution.
This incident has not only shocked the judicial world, but has also created a stir in the political corridors. The opposition has described it as a warning a threat to democracy, while a new debate has erupted on the security and dignity of the judiciary across the country.
