Dartboard Democracy

When the so called intellectuals not elected by the people try to use the supreme court of law to impose their own agenda on the Government and when the supreme court doesn't agree, they use social media as a dartboard and malign the

individual reputation of the judge and the independence of judiciary. The Dartboard Democracy may therefore delay the deliverables by the Government.
India's top lawyer Harish Salve said that a lot of people who are not elected representatives feel that they can impose their will on the government through the courts.

He made the observation while asserting that one can criticise a judgment and even a judge, but attributing motives to them is wrong “’If a judge does not agree with me, he is dishonest’ - This tendency must be curtailed. We owe it to the system. We have let our systems down, Supreme Court is not a Dartboard.” Salve said.
So called intellectual: "The Judge is hand in glove with the Government and has failed to protect the Democracy."
An observer: " Sir, you may be right but before maligning the reputation of the honorable court of law, wait till the end result. Dartboard Democracy is detrimental to the very cause of democracy."

When we live in a parental democracy, where the two blocks that govern do not offer alternatives, when the state becomes, as in Goya's painting, Saturn devouring his children, the radicals emerge, young anarchists flying their flags made ​​of gunpowder.
