Irony, contradiction and amnesia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The symbolism in the Governmentâs ramming through the Special Operations Bill 90 minutes into the 50th anniversary of the Republic Day holiday could hardly have been lost on anyone. Nothing could have spoken more eloquently about the state of our Republic. Nor could we be blind to the irony of a Prime Minister who had chosen to take her oath of office one hand on the Constitution vowing to uphold it but now heaping calumny on the constitutional role assigned to Independent senators while vowin
