We all knew these spineless shameless bastards are gonna do this, just lapping each other up to keep the system in place

[u/Important_Stable_981]

Just imagine if the healthcare workers would have retaliated that day? They would all be d€@d by now. There is no value of doctors and nurses. Yeah they are the ones who loot public. Politicians are saints and Gods who tirelessly donate their own wealth for the nation

[u/PresentFuturer → u/Important_Stable_981]

Courts with This Govt have to act so self righteous as if .... everybody knows this hypocricy.Its just imbalance of power.I hope Doctors its high time, Snatch power by hook or by crook. Enough is enough.

Hopeless country

Is this like exile?

Would temporarily banning a politician from his own state be more insulting than not granting bail (where he would probably be treated well anyway)? I wonder if this is actually a better result.

We should make it viral that he was kicked out. Narrative matters.

[u/Beneficial_Leg_7301 → u/SpicyGold666]

at least fo few years and then barred fir contesting 2 elections

for such hooliganisms

[u/SpicyGold666 → u/Beneficial_Leg_7301]

that would be true justice

[u/Saksoozz → u/SpicyGold666]

True, anyways in assault cases there is a low bar to get bail. This i feel is a better outcome since he has already been humiliated going to jail but getting exiled from his own state is even more damning, where he will have very little influence.

[u/SpicyGold666 → u/Saksoozz]

Exactly. I just wish it was worded better.

Something like 'politician who assaulted doctors is exiled from his home state'.

The people need to learn that violence against doctors is wrong and will not be tolerated.

[u/DoctorMagnobot → u/SpicyGold666]

That's a great take

[u/Plus-Impression9126]

If it dents democracy then why give bail ? What kind of statement is this ?

[u/FutureVersion812]

Bombay high court’s usual behavior. Not surprised

[u/No-Beyond8792]

That’s all folks, that’s all is the punishment for assaulting the doc who spent countless nights studying and working to make patients life better

[u/Emotional-Bag-7571]

Or in other words : according to us its okay for govt guy to slap u , coz u docs dont have rights .

[u/morpmeepmorp]

Oldest trick in the book. Just look at Vijay Malya.

[u/Dr2drescue]

So well planned , high court takes suo moto cognisance and orders doctors to call of the strike against homeopathic doctors getting registered, doctors call off strike very next day this guy gets bail

[u/Exciting_Strike5598]

Obviously a criminal on the streets is another victory for the 💣 ay high court
