What would you do if Matrika Yadav comes to you and locks u in a toilet because someone complained against you to him that u r corrupt. Do you expect all of us to applaud Matrika? Don't you expect a fair investigation.

I don't know how corrupt that officer was. It's not a movie like Shahenshah where the superhero is the cop, the lawyer and the judge.

In a civilized society, there is a thing called power allocation, there is a reason why there are cops, lawyers, judiciary, free press, and above all transparency. Why a minister clings to his position if he can't abide by the law or for that matter have no respect for the law. Do we want people like N Korea's leader who is probably everything, a government by himself. Or do we need a democratic system, flawed it may be, but gives a fair chance for everyone to defend himself against accusations.

Matrika might have been right, but he is no god to punish someone by himself. If that's the example he sets, and that's what we applaud honestly I have nothing to say on this matter. Chapter closed for me.

But put yourself in a civil servant shoes and think accordingly. A minister is no god. He is not a cop. He is a civil servant who has to respect the law to clean the system if that's what he wants to do.Eccentricity and hyperbole takes you nowhere Mr. Yadav.
