The French people of 1792 promised a government “of the people, by the people, for the people.” Today, India must decide if that promise was sincere or hollow. Will we continue to tolerate a democratic system that serves the few, or will we truly let “we the people” rewrite the rules? The time to act is now. Let us take a cue from revolutionary history and meet in an assembly – a Second Republic’s Constituent Assembly – to forge a constitution that restores the dignity, justice and participation that the poor have been denied. Only then can India claim to be a democracy in which liberty, equality and fraternity are more than words.
The Tamil Pride is just a basic start of fascist path.

India's Constitutional Crisis: The Case for a Second Republic
The Indian Constitution, hailed as one of the world's most comprehensive documents, has become a fortress protecting the privileged while leaving the masses stranded in bureaucratic mazes. With over 52 million pending cases across all levels of courts, including more than 180,000 cases pending for over 30 years, our judicial system has become a monument to institutional failure rather than justice.
The time has come to acknowledge an uncomfortable truth: India's constitutional framework, rooted in Westminster parliamentarianism and designed by elites for elites, has created a republic that serves the few at the expense of the many. We need a Second Republic—one that truly serves Hindustan and not just India.
