The Maharashtra Government has amended a provision of the Criminal Procedure Code(CrPC), (156)(3) and 190. According to them, no FIR can be registered against MLAs and bureaucrats without the approval of the speaker of Assembly, even if directed by a court. It is an unethical move which should be taken back immediately. This amendment directly encourages the politicians and bureaucrats to indulge in unlawful activities without any fear of getting caught, and on the other hand, it discourages the citizens to raise their voice against the powerful people. This is a direct attack on the basic principle of the Constitution, which is equality before the law. This step has been taken because the government claims that there are many fake complaints filed frequently against the politicians and bureaucrats. Now, the government says that without the sanction of the speaker, no FIR can be filed, but in most of the cases, evidence is collected after the lodging of an FIR. Without any evidence, on what basis will the government decide to approve or disapprove an FIR? After this amendment, no citizen would like to raise his voice against any injustice done by politicians and bureaucrats. Everyone is equal in the eyes of law, but this amendment proves that everyone is not equal in the eyes of law. How is the court not capable enough to take action against someone? Does being a politician or bureaucrat make you above the law? Every citizen has fundamental rights, and one will raise his voice in case of violation of his rights. He will seek justice and no one has the right to deny justice to someone, but if his rights are violated by a politician or a bureaucrat, should justice get more difficult for him to attain or more easier? This is the age of decentralization of power, but this move makes the power more centralized.
