Good Evening Speakasians,
Zindagi me “kabhi Khushi, Kabhi Gham” Is se hum sab achi tarha wakif hai.
We all have heard the phrase life is a roller coaster ride and we Speakasians are made of stern stuff and we all know how to enjoy this ride, we will shout and scream when the roller coaster takes us up and down but at the end we disembark from the ride with a smile on our face.
I know our hopes were pinned heavily on the Mumbai High Courts hearing but alas the hearing did not take place due to administrative issues, the bench was not able to hear any matter after 3.00pm. The matter is now adjourned after vacations. The High Court will be on vacation till the 6th November, 2011.
I have spoken to our counsel and we will try to rectify the matter and see that the PIL is not adjourned for such a length of time. We will finalise the rectification method in a day or two. I will keep you posted of the facts through my Updates.
But with the positive movement in the Supreme Court I am quite confident that god willing we will not have to wait for any relief from the Mumbai High Court.
What happened in the Supreme Court that gives me so much confidence?
Adv. Mukul Rohatgi, the Senior Counsel in the writ Petition filed by some panelists, mentioned our case before the Hon. Judge in the Supreme Court and pointed out to the Hon. Court the affidavit filed by the company which categorically mentioned the intention of the company to pay immediately all dues of the panelists. In fact, it seems that the company affidavit opens with the plea, that the company, be allowed to pay to the Panelists. The Company even suggests that a committee be instituted, if required, by the Hon. Supreme Court of retired Supreme Court Judge/s to oversee the disbursement of these funds to the panelists.
Taking cognizance, and on merit of the affidavit the Hon. Court was pleased to post the WRIT PETITION for hearing on Monday the 17th October, 2011, It is important to note that it is not normal for the Hon. Supreme Court to prepone matters without finding merit. In my opinion this is the major GOOD NEWS for us Panelists that the Hon. Supreme Court has found merit in the submissions of the company SAOL.
Friends, fellow Speakasians, I have been always professing that whilst the matter is sub judice no time frame can be set on any issue. For this precise reason, knowing very well what happened in the Mumbai High Court is normal with the Indian Judicial system.
I have been communicating with loads of people through the ‘contact us’ on aispa.co.in and there has been a mixed response from absolute negative comments to strongly positive suggestions and admiration for the role team Aispa is playing.
I try my best to answer each and every query posted to me, although at times, I am not able to answer to all of them immediately. Many Panelists have advised me many a times to adopt the easier route of corruption and I have always replied to each one of them, that is one route, the company is on record to say that we are law abiding citizens and we will fight the system but never submit our self to corruption. If that is the stand the company wants to take then we the Panelists will whole heartedly support this and wait patiently for the outcome.
I received this message via SMS and because it was relevant to our current situation I take liberty and reproduce the same as follows:
You want & you get--- That is Luck.
You want & you wait--- That is Time.
You want & you Compromise--- That is Life.
You want & you wait and DO NOT COMPROMISE--- That is SUCCESS.
Friends I have always been saying that in the end analysis victory is assured and victory will surely be ours.
Like Tarak sahib says WE ARE BOUND TO WIN… AND WE WILL DEFINITELY WIN.
Have faith, Have patience, Trust your company.
Proud to be Speakasian… Actually very proud.
Jai Speakasia
