Bail matters are inherently different from other Legal Cases

 It is said that Bail is Rule and Jail is an exception in Bail Cases.

In a Society, which we do call it civilized, a Jail reduces a human being to animal. Jailing is akin to chaining human, where inherent human dignity is imminently lost. 

A Justice, Judge or a Magistrate, being a reflection of superior human being, must deemed to stand for personal liberty, and can never argue for chaining a fellow human, unless it is vehemently shown that fellow human has acquired an Animal instinct of grave danger. 

Therefore, in Bail matters, where limited issue is of personal liberty, a Judge indisputably stands for personal liberty.

Therefore, Bail matters are inherently different from other Legal Cases. In other Legal Cases, the Judges, dispassionately, may be deciding rights of the parties. But in Bail matters, Judges stand for Personal liberty; and therefore in Bail Cases, Judges have to “argue” passionately, Impugning Prosecution, in favour of personal liberty, unless animal instinct is shown.

A passing thought:

Personal Liberty is not a Right, it is ours breathe, and breathe cannot be taken away frivolously.

A human person must be chained if he has acquired an Animal instinct and inevitably threatens the safety and peace of the Society. But not otherwise. This should only be the parameter or the benchmark for granting or refusing Bail.

Mumbai Capital Value Property Tax Judgment: A Rocket Science by Social Scientists; A Brief Analysis;

The subject of taxation is a “Rocket Science”. The constitution of Nine Judges Bench in the Mafatlal Industries Case, Reported in (1997) 5 SCC 536, running into more than 500 pages; the extremely contested Vodafone litigation; and the present Judgment of Bombay High Court running into 310 Pages, at least furnishes some justification to this statement of Rocket Science. There are umpteen Judgments, some of which are relied herein also (Para 147), that whilst dealing with challenge to Taxation laws, greater latitude is shown by Constitutional Courts, only for the reason that Taxation / Economic Legislation, by their very nature, are very complex. And hold on, the Regime of Property Tax based on Capital Value of the Property, was brought in force, on the recommendations of Tata Institute of “Social Sciences”. (Para 33 of the Judgment) Did these Social Scientist, nevertheless very respectable, would appreciate an Inch of what was discussed in 310 Pages of Judgment, even assuming t...
