A Silver Lining.

The Mumbai High Court lifted the ban imposed on dance bars by Maharashtra government last year. As I wrote at the time, the ban was a highly disturbing act. So naturally I am delighted by this ruling.

Inept and handicapped as our courts may be, it is a matter of great comfort and hope to see such decisions. It means that government actions are not arbitrary and people have the power to question those actions and win redress.
