When religion is misused to take millions of the deprived, downtrodden for a ride thru misquoting scriptures by the so called higher castes , my blood boilsI have to agree with Mr. Sarang here, for India and Hinduism, it is not a religion of laws. It is a philosophy and belief system. Without that belief system millions of deprived, downtrodden, unfortunate people may not have a good explanation for the travails of life. That's why most Indian movies in all languages show that good wins out in the end.
Of course in real life JJ may escape on appeal. Let's wait and see.
brahmin or a higher caste winning would be projected as good winning .
that the existing order is slowly facing a challenge by those considered lower in caste heirarchy is unacceptable to many
time to change and accept it .
the voices of change will be heard and they will overcome the odds and get a better life.
