    Dear Sumanth, Indian supreme court lol. When I listen this name, I cann’t hold my laughing. Its better to go in the jaws of a crocodile rather than to ask for justice from Indian Supreme Court. Indian supreme court has a very dark history. It has been established to safe guard the hindus of upper caste, the brahman. Untill the 95% indians stand up in front of the 5% baramans and sink them in Kanga, Jamna and Indian ocean, no one will give justice to the 95% people of India. Neither Indian Supreme court nor the barahman are ready to bear any lower caste hindu and minorities in India Wish them good luck.
