re: Duty -versus- Conscience |

Vijay I am not sure about your concept of conscience. Rights and wrongs are relative and variable according to world recognition. I was alive and kicking during world war two. As a Gandhian I would have shot any Gestapo dead as a matter of duty. If I had joined Subash Chandra Bose and his INA I would have shot any Indian soldier working for the British Americans and Russians.
Even today if I were working as a hangman I shall hang an accused till death if a district judge gives a death sentence and the Supreme Court confirms it. If I were an Energy man I would have shot every terrorist who raided Bombay if he would not surrender.
I have defended 3000 prosecutions and at least 1500 of them, I was sure, were guilty. I shall defend Kasab and his clan and can be his mouth piece if I am asked. I shall also bury him or cremate him if I were an undertaker. That is my conscience.
