It’s always a delight when our resident intellectual, Swara Bhasker, comes to enlighten the masses with her pearls of wisdom. And this time, she’s back with a new grievance. You see, Swara is quite offended that her comrades—Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam—are still in jail for the Delhi riots, even after four whole years! Naturally, she wonders why she’s still walking free. Well, dear Swara, maybe your acting in political drama is as convincing as your Bollywood performances?
Many Muslim youths including Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam etc are in jail for the last 4 years in Delhi Riot cases..I also protested but they have not arrested me. Why? Just because I am a hindu.

In a stroke of victimhood genius, she’s claimed the reason for her freedom is because she’s Hindu. Ah yes, let’s play the religion card. How convenient! Never mind the fact that these “youths” (Umar and Sharjeel) are facing serious charges related to instigating violence during the riots. According to Swara’s worldview, their religion—not their actions—must be the real reason they’re still behind bars.
Swara & The Eternal Victimhood Choir
Let’s break it down, shall we? Sharjeel Imam, that beacon of unity, is known for his wonderful call to cut off Assam from India. Because what screams “peaceful protest” more than suggesting the breakup of the nation, right? Umar Khalid? Oh, just the chap who’s been linked with speeches that seemed to have a “coincidental” correlation with large-scale violence. Minor details that Swara conveniently ignores in her cry for justice.
But wait, there’s more! Swara has accused none other than Chief Justice of India (CJI) of prioritizing Ganesh Puja with PM Modi over hearing cases. Yes, because clearly, that’s the only possible reason the cases of those poor, misunderstood “youths” haven’t been heard yet. Not the complexity of the legal process, not the weight of the charges. Nope. Ganesh Puja!
Ganesh Puja: The Real Villain
Let’s take a moment to appreciate this new theory Swara has unveiled for us. In her world, CJI is lounging around with Modi, planning festive celebrations, while her friends rot in jail for merely “protesting.” Is this the new benchmark for legal expertise? Clearly, attending a Ganesh Puja now equals dereliction of judicial duty. Why? Because it involves Hinduism, of course. We should all just start skipping religious events to prove our secularism credentials, right? After all, selective secularism is a trend worth following.
But Swara has a point! She, too, protested and yet, somehow, she wasn’t arrested. The audacity of the system! The logical conclusion? Well, she didn’t do enough damage, of course. She should’ve taken some riot notes from her incarcerated friends. After all, in her mind, it’s not the incitement of riots but the selective application of justice that’s the problem here.
Selective Outrage: The New Anthem
Swara and her gang of intellectual heavyweights never fail to amuse with their moral gymnastics. For them, justice is a one-way street, and the rules are simple: if you’re a Muslim, especially one accused of inciting riots, you’re automatically a victim of state oppression. And if you’re not in jail? Well, it’s just your “Hindu privilege” at work. Facts and evidence are merely pesky distractions in their grand narrative.
Oh, and if you happen to attend a religious event like Ganesh Puja? Brace yourselves. That’s the real crime here. Apparently, one cannot practice one’s religion and perform one’s duty at the same time. How dare the CJI indulge in festivities when Swara’s friends are waiting to be heard in court? Priorities, people!
A Riot of Hypocrisy
At the end of the day, Swara Bhasker and her gang of anti-nationals love a good riot of hypocrisy. While they shout from the rooftops about justice and equality, they conveniently forget that actions have consequences. And those consequences aren’t dictated by one’s religion but by the severity of their actions during, say, a little event like the Delhi riots.
But hey, why let pesky facts get in the way of a good sob story? Swara Bhasker will continue to cry injustice from her soapbox while comfortably ignoring the details that don’t suit her narrative. Meanwhile, the rest of us will sit back and enjoy the melodrama, popcorn in hand.
