"First, I congratulate and thank @narendramodi & @AmitShah for abrogating Article 370. I also thank SC for upholding the #RightToJustice. Justice SC Kaul’s has made a very important recommendation. It’s time India sets up TARC for all the Genocides of last 75 years. Starting from Direct Action Day till Delhi Riots of 2020. It’s time India takes Genocides and citizens #RightToLife very seriously," he posted.
