Flare: Opinions (Law, Human Rights and Politics) by Ankur Mutreja (miss read books TXT) π
Excerpt from the book:
Opinions are like flare, which can turn either way: they can spread like wild fire or encapsulate themselves within the bounds of personal integrity, and thus illuminate. I started writing opinions in the year 2008 through my blogs. I admit at times I did go wild with unsubstantiated accusations and surmises, leading to risky speculations and irresponsible opinions. Recently, I published a comprehensive book of my writings entitled "Writings @ Ankur Mutreja", and the present book is a short selection of my opinions presented therein with emphasis on responsible writing.
I am an advocate by profession; therefore, most of my opinions have a tint of law; in the first part, the expression is simple; so, it is for lay persons who wonβt mind a little exercise of mind in the legal arena; whereas, in the second part, I have gone whole hog with law, and I admit those without formal legal training may find it convenient to ignore.
My style of writing is terse and pointed, but at times I have gone overboard like in one particular opinion on Aarushi murder, where emotions and logic intermingled in an expanded narrative.
Rights, especially privacy and equality, are my area of focus; therefore most of my opinions herein; i.e., the ones discussing Brain Research, NCTC, Sting Operations, LGBTs, Prostitution, SC/ST quotas, and AADHAR/NPR; are focused on these two areas.
In my selection, I have tried steering clear of politics, but politics is nevertheless all encompassing; however, one opinion on tussle between Delhi Police and AAP is majorily political; another political opinion, but with a strong emphasis on law, is the discussion of Zakia Jaffrey case.
There were few very big events in the recent past; one amongst them is the Nirbhaya murder, and I have also discussed it, though my take is slightly different: I think the murder has been manipulated by the vested interests.
I am a resident of an unauthorized colony; therefore, my opinion on Unauthorized Colonies has found place in the present selection; though I admit had the case been different, I wouldnβt have included it; so please bear with my little bias.
Though I have no expertise in international affairs, I have taken a plunge into it albeit within the ambit of my legal training; the topics discussed are Indo-Pak relationship and Julian Assange.
Finally, in the second part, I have discussed various judgments and laws. I would recommend anybody to read at least my critique of Aarushi Judgement. Other than that I have critiqued Binayak Sen Judgement and Aruna Shaunbaug Judgement. In the second part, I have also critiqued RTI Act and Amendments in IPC post Nirbhaya murder.
Enjoy Reading! Ankur Mutreja.

earn huge Dollar/Rupee profits from prostitution but also want to use women as currency, which can be laundered and re-minted almost perpetually; and they are trying to shoot from behind the shoulders of prostitutes. Their motives are clear from the kinds of debates they hold in media: They keep terming prostitution as illegal β but which it is not as per law β and, in disguise of giving dignity to the prostitutes, they want to run industries where women would be labor, capital and goods, all at the same time, but, nevertheless, under the control of the capitalists; they want to make rape an industry. The present BJP Government was expected to help them in their motives, but this soon! That was not expected. I would say this debate has thrown up a very serious challenge before the real women rights activists against the fakesters. They will have to guard against any attempt, however indirect and remote, of the present government to legalize any kind of trafficking and/or industrialization of women. The status quo with respect to provisions restricting formation of prostitute partnerships or even restricting their free individual associations will have to be maintained for the better good of protecting women against their own commodification β in another of my writings, I have said that a prostitute has every right to get married like normal girls but only after leaving the profession, and, here, I reiterate it.
Chapter 1.3: SC/ST Quota in Promotions
(September 2012)
A new debate has emerged on the Indian newscape: Should there be quota in promotions? Incidental to the debate is the legal question: Will the constitutional amendment introduced in the Parliament pass the test of judicial scrutiny? I donβt intend to discuss the second question except to express a prima-facie view that there wouldnβt be any challenge to the Basic Structure of the Constitution by introducing promotions in jobs for the SCs/STs; the logic is simple: the courts wouldnβt look into the discretion of the Legislature to designate the SCs/STs as backwards, and, other than this, there wonβt be any challenge to the Basic
