SRI KRISHNA'S WISDOM ON JURISPRUDENCE

THOUGH THE SUPREME COURT GRANTED RELIEF TO NUPUR SHARMA ON HER SECOND PRAYER, THE ACTION CANNOT BE CONSIDERED SUFFICIENT. SOCIETY WANTS TO SEE THE JUDICIARY IN THE ROLE OF KRISHNA BHAGWAN

- DR PRADEEP KUMAR SINGH, Columnist

Society has been a composition of benign and evil in all the ages, but with the passage of time the evil has become more and more dominant. There is an irrefutable scientific principle—the entropy of an isolated system always tends to increase. The entropy refers to unusable energy or disorder. In the context of social science, it can be considered unusable resources, corruption or anarchy. In the last few months, the painful glimpses of the Dwapar era have been observed in the country.

The last century of the Dwapar era observed the great war between Kauravas and Pandavas, called the Mahabharata, mentioned in scriptures. This story is well known through the TV serial Mahabharata aired on Doordarshan. Nevertheless, one incident of the story needs to be mentioned. Duryodhana and Yudhishthira played two rounds of Chausar in the courtroom of Dhritarashtra, the king of Hastinapur. In the first round of the game, Yudhishthira lost all his wealth, royal palace, properties, army and kingdom. He put himself at stake along with his brothers and became the slave of Duryodhana after losing. In the end, Draupadi was also put at stake, and was lost. On the orders of Duryodhana, Draupadi was forcibly dragged into the courtroom by Dushasana, and an attempt was made to strip her naked. Considering this as unreasonable, Draupadi requested for intervention of King Dhritarashtra and other members present—the eldest Kuru Bhishma, Dronacharya, Kripacharya etc., but all expressed their inability by observing silence. Pandavas (Yudhishthira & brothers) also could not help.
