Law In India Is Separate For The Rich And Famous. Instances Of Double Standards Stand Testimony


The Indian legal system is not the best known for delivering justice swiftly and hence is a sparkling specimen of the saying, "justice delayed is justice denied". But that is not all, justice is denied or delivered in India on the basis of the celebrity status, political clout or financial status of a person as well.



1. Salman Khan

Perhaps the most prominent example of double standards practiced by the law, the superstar with a huge fan following, got bail hours after being convicted in a hit and run case, as the High Court went out of its way to hear his bail plea. He is also out on bail after being convicted of killing an endangered Chinkara deer.
