It was one of those days that seemed destined to test my faith and patience - that is, Shraddha & Saburi - as my loving Guru Sai Baba puts it!
I received this divine communication today morning and it was very unusual than all such messages I received in past from Divine realm. It never spoke in this language earlier and was quite different today!
And to my surprise I even saw an Autorickshaw with the number 811 (and another digit at end) when I left home for the court - what a synchronicity!
Despite the binding precedents and clear rulings from the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in the matter of Jagjeet Singh Vs Ashish Mishra in 2022, affirming the rights of victims to be heard from the stages of investigation through appeal, my voice was not just ignored—it was silenced.
As I stood there, attempting to present our case, the Investigating Officer who had conducted the reinvestigation was conspicuously absent. The officer had been transferred to Pune in what seemed like a calculated move, leaving no one in her place to inform the court of the critical evidence that had been unearthed. I explained to the Presiding Officer that crucial files, papers, and evidence were unavailable for perusal. I invoked Section 165 of the Indian Evidence Act and Section 311 of the CrPC, imploring that these be considered during the final hearing. Yet my pleas were dismissed.
The situation only worsened when I attempted to cite precedent. I referenced cases under the Negotiable Instruments Act where Power of Attorney holders had been permitted to act, but my arguments were brushed aside. The court maintained that such allowances in negotiable instruments cases didn’t extend to criminal matters like IPC Section 420—fraud and cheating.
The Advocates for the accused, however, were heard. They presented their case freely, even in the absence of the main Investigating Officer who is crucial to lead with evidences in custody of Police.
The imbalance of it all struck me deeply. For a moment, it felt as though the system prioritized the rights of the accused over the anguish of victims seeking justice.
Dejected but not defeated, I wrote a formal complaint to the Incharge Judge of this court, hoping for justice. The effort, however, seemed futile at this moment of urgency!
Complaint Letter I wrote today:
However, I could see the stress and worry on face of my senior citizen Mom who accompanied me for the hearing today. Consoling my elderly mother was perhaps the hardest part. She looked at me with a mix of worry and hope, and I told her, “Mom, don’t worry. Whatever happens, happens for good. If my first lawyer hadn’t betrayed me, I wouldn’t have studied law and come this far.”
Even as I tried to reassure her, a heaviness settled in my heart when I learnt that the matter was argued in total abscence of Investigating officer and the crucial evidences and they were kept for Final Orders . It felt as though everything I had worked tirelessly for was slipping away.
Walking out of the court, my mind swirled with questions about justice.
- How can the rights of the accused overshadow the rights of victims?
- BECAUSE Afterall, we are still a country where the rights of the accused seem more valuable than those of victims…
- Why is the freedom of those who commit crimes prioritized over the voices of those they harm?
- BECAUSE We live in a system where liberty for the accused often overshadows accountability for their actions…
- When did empathy and a holistic perspective give way to a fixation on technicalities?
- Because In a system where rich criminals can afford to pay any price, their lawyers make technicalities a good weapon to mishuide the judiciary to overlook the holistic justice…
Yet, amidst this turmoil, a small voice inside me whispered, “Everything is okay. All is well. Everything is working in your favor.”
The heaviness of heart was overwhelming and still that string of FAITH never broke!
Later, as I scrolled through my phone, I stumbled upon a video by Lovely Erika. Her words mirrored my emotions and experiences from the day with uncanny precision—the confusion, the heartache, the sense of injustice. It was as though the universe had sent me a sign, a reminder that even in the face of setbacks, I was not alone.
This IS NO coincidence. It IS A divine synchronicity.
In that moment I received Divine Assuarnce that everything is okay!
JUST LET IT BE!
AND SO
With Tears of Joy in my Eyes For receiving these synchronictic messages that makes all sense, I DECLARE....
I KNOW THAT EVERY SETBACK IS A SET UP FOR SOMETHING GREATER
I HAVE FULL FAITH THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE PROTECTED & GUIDED!
Thank you, Almighty, for holding my hand through it all.
Even in my darkest hours, you have always come through, making me stronger than I ever believed I could be.
I know now that everything, even this challenging day, is working in my favor.
With Infinite Gratitude and Unwavering Faith,
