It is a strange coincidence that on a day Supreme Court ordered the Union and state governments to come up with a law against “the horrendous acts of mobocracy”, the Hindu vigilantes were busy thrashing Swami Agnivesh and making him immobile in Jharkhand’s Litipara. This was happening just as the SC said that the “recurrent pattern of violence cannot be allowed to become the new normal”.
