Dear Shri. Modi,
I am glad you chose to write an open letter to the ‘Six
crore Gujaratis’. This has not only afforded me a window to your mind
but has also given me an opportunity to write to you through the same
medium.
My dear brother, it seems you have completely
misconstrued the judgement and order passed by the Honourable Supreme
Court of India in Criminal Appeal No. 1765 of 2011 arising out of S.L.P.
(CRL.) No. 1088 of 2008 viz. Jakia Nasim Ahesan & Anr. Versus State
of Gujarat & Ors. It is very likely that your chosen advisors have
once again misled you and have in turn, made you mislead the ‘Six crore
Gujaratis’ who look up to you as their elected leader.

. . . This is my 24th year in the IPS. I was allotted to
the Gujarat cadre during a time when the State was passing through the
throes of widespread and sporadic communal violence. Having been
baptised by fire, I have been since trying to understand and deal with
the likes of you, who deal in the divisive politics of hatred. It is my
well founded observation that the polity of Gujarat has now crossed the
stage where communal violence can accrue electoral benefits to any
political party, as the process of communal polarisation is very nearly
complete in Gujarat. The experiments in the divisive politics of hatred
have been very successful in the Gujarat Laboratory. [. . . ]
