Statement on the Babri Masjid judgement today
Pirate Praveen Sat 9 Nov 2019 7:29AMPublicSeen by 168We could just collect good responses from people and echo it (with links) and add our own perspective.
"Listen. Don't despair. We knew this was coming.
This was a purely political judgment made by those in power. It does not change the truth. Truth is eternal and truth always wins.
Whatever has happened, has happened. We know we are right
Let's not be defeated or lose hope because if we do, we are giving them exactly what they want.
Democratic ideals may have taken a beating today but we'll rise again, provided we work towards doing so."

i agree with @vik@hamara's opinion that forcing someone to feel ashamed is anti-constitutional. agreeing with the proposal to publish the statements since it's removed.

I've not had enough time to read about Ayodhya, Babri Masjid, etc. From my initial impressions, I agree with the idea that democracies should protect everyone and not just the majority. But I won't vote on anything related to Ayodhya/Babri Masjid till I'm better educated. (And that's a hard thing to do given that the events in question happened before I was born, even)

i wish to stand and make my voice heard using the privileges that most are being denied. the opinion I present today, is on their behalf.

Are we going to formulate our own response. Or are we going to quote the thoughts that people shared on social media?

We got consensus in Associates group and we can now publish it in our website.
