Khamanon (Punjab): On Sunday morning, 80-year-old Gurmukh Singh reached his village in Punjab after spending at least 15 days in the Tihar Jail in New Delhi along with a dozen or so farmers.

The rampant misuse (if not abuse) of the Indian criminal justice system certainly calls for an interventionist approach from our Supreme Court (SC). A hands-off approach is no good and, in fact, seems to be encouraging those who want to take advantage of the law to inconvenience anyone who is perhaps an annoyance to them.
