CJI Redeems Himself ...

With his recent opinions in the famous 'Khushboo' case, the CJI has luckily refused to meddle in people's private decisions.

It's perhaps symptomatic of how stupid and archaic Indians are that what the actress had said should have been controversial to begin with.

It's merely a reflection of people's misplaced priorities. India is a nation where people are bothered about other people's private behavior but do not find it outrageous if kids have to beg at traffic lights and spend their childhoods working instead of studying in school.

Indians are a strange people with a completely misplaced set of priorities.
