Notes

No disrespect to Dr.Ambedkar or any other Leader!
But He also quoted this,

" I feel that the constitution is workable, it is flexible and it is strong enough to

hold the country together both in peacetime and in wartime. Indeed, if I may say

so, if things go wrong under the new Constitution, the reason will not be that we

had a bad Constitution. What we will have to say is that Man was vile. "

In simpler words, no matter how good the constitution is, if the people following

it are not, then there will be injustice & sense of inequality, in contrast to, even if

the constitution is bad, if people following it are good then there will be justice,

liberty & equality!
So, im not doubting the validity of our Constitution or the Judiciary process, but

the people handling it!

Excerpts from an article in the Indian Express (Link shared above):
Initiated by Yakub, the idea gradually took root that since they were not involved

in the bomb conspiracy, they should go back to Mumbai and clear their names.

They had a kind of naive faith that since they were innocent, they would be

acquitted.

The Memons felt only Yakub may get punishment for secondary offences

stemming from his involvement, as a chartered accountant, in Tiger’s silver

smuggling business. But even this could get offset by the fact that the Memons

had brought crucial evidence implicating Pakistan.

Yakub naively thought the country would feel indebted and he would get lenient

treatment.

The Memons came back because they believed in their innocence. More

importantly, they were convinced that since India was a democracy their rights

would be protected, that the government would be even-handed and that they

would get a fair trial.

They have been proved wrong on all counts.

Rubina got rigorous life imprisonment only because a Maruti van used by Tiger’s

men was registered in her name. But she wasn’t even living in Mumbai at the

time of the bombings — she had shifted to Dubai six months earlier.

Essa, who was hospitalised with a brain tumour and suffers from morbid obesity,

and Yousuf, diagnosed as a schizophrenic, also got life only because the flats

and garage where the bomb conspiracy was hatched by Tiger and his men were

registered in their names. There is nothing otherwise to link them to the

conspiracy.

Yakub has been condemned to death. He was found guilty of arranging money

for the purchase of vehicles used by the bombers and organising air tickets to

Dubai for some of them. But such activity was normal for Yakub, since he had access to Tiger’s hawala bank accounts linked to silver smuggling. It does not necessarily show knowledge of or participation in the bomb conspiracy.
