Stan Swamy is dead. Sudha Bhardwaj is still in jail. She has been there since August 2018. A lady who gave up American citizenship to fight for the rights on the underdog. A labour activist who dedicated her life to helping others and stood against the powerful to do so.

When she was arrested she was getting ready to teach a course at NLU Delhi. After her arrest she was honoured by Harvard. Even if you don’t agree with what she fights for, you must agree that our democracy is richer due to people like her. People that stand for principles.

This is hardly someone who can be described as a terrorist. She fought openly for what she believed i.e. she did what a citizen with a point of view in a democracy is supposed to do. Opposing the actions of a Govt. is not a crime.
