This could be a first in India's legal history - appeal pending since 17 years :
In the year 2000, Ajay Mishra @ Taini (now MoS Home) was accused of killing 23 year old Prabhat Gupta. Was acquitted in 2004 by the District & Sessions Judge & appeal against acquittal was filed 1/3
Matter reaches Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court in the same year by way of Criminal Appeal No. 1624 of 2004.Listed on 34 dates so far. Judgment reserved on 12.03.2018. More than three and a half years ago. 2/3
Not even listed for more than two and a half years, i.e. since 05.02.2019. Delay mostly on account of the accused seeking repeated adjournments. Why would the one who got clean chit at lower court delay the proceedings in HC if the clean chit was really clean ??
3/3

Talk to any doctor on COVID duty and all are saying reasons must be made public by MHA & LG on why they have discontinued the most successful method of home quarantine for Covid postivecasymptomatic & mild symptom patients 1/n
Doctors say comfortable environment is the best for those who don't require hospitalisation & shifting them will put such patients under unnecessary stress and panic.
Transportation will be an additional problem apart from unjustified load on doctors & medical staff 2/n
Forcing asymptomatic & those with mild symptoms to stay in places with hundreds of other such patients in high virus load areas will actually make them vulnerable to higher levels of infection and travelling will even put those in close contact at higher risk 3/n

Amazing views of Twitter Constitution experts -
Delhi hospitals should be available to all :
* Despite Delhi having been the only govt not to have been given a even penny by central govt in fight against Covid 1/n
* There are equal number of beds in Central govt & Delhi govt hospitals in Delhi.
Despite that
* Centre did not declare any of its hospital as a dedicated COVID facility in the national capital. 2/n
* None of the central govt hospital doctors were provided for duties either at airports when thousands of stranded Indians returned or in Quarantine Centres where nearly three thousand devotees from Nizamuddin Markaz were qarantined 3/n

Data of top 10 states in India in terms of Covid tests per million shows Delhi is testing far more than states having 5-7 times its population including Maharashtra.
Gujarat despite very low testing has the highest fatality rate.
Govts must be criticised, but on facts 1/n :
Facts show no state in India is conducting even half the number of Covid tests as compared to Delhi.
This means the outrage manufactured by those blinded by hatred towards elected Delhi govt had other intentions. Was it to keep private hospitals reserved for the elite ? 2/n
There is no doubt that health sector faces severe shortcomings - but the media instead of providing meaningful information has been indulging in promotion of private sector healthcare even in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic since it caters to rich who can spend 3/n

Came across some very angry tweets and motivated criticism obviously with lack of information based on blind hatred on why @SatyendarJain and Delhi govt released Jessica Lal's killer Manu Sharma ahead of his sentence being completed. Let us look at facts in this thread 1/n :
First of all, govt cannot release any convict. It is the Court appointed Sentence Review Board which has to review the cases for release as put by jail authorities, in this case the Tihar Jail. First of all let us understand what is the Sentence Review Board (SRB) 2/n
SRB comprises of seven members - a district judge, a Joint Commissioner level police officer, Tihar DG, Delhi Home Secretary, Probationary officer, Law secretary & is headed by Home Minister. It sends its recommendations to LG in Delhi's case, since LG is the law & order boss 3/n
