"Everyone is not Savarkar" says Jignesh Mevani on Prashant Bhushan case
New Delhi: Activist turned politician, Jignesh Mevani on Thursday reacted to the Prashant Bhushan telling SC that he did not tweet in absence mindedness and it would be insincere and contemptuous on his part to offer an apology for the tweets that expressed what was and continues to be his bona fide belief.
Taking to his twitter handle, Jignesh wrote that Prashant Bhushan has shown what it means to speak truth to power by not apologizing and standing by his words in Supreme Court.
He further added in the tweet that not everyone is a Savarkar, taking a dig at Veer Savarkar.
Prashant Bhushan has shown what it means to speak truth to power by not apologizing and standing by his words in SC.

Kejriwal eating food high in sugar despite type 2 diabetes to make grounds for bail, ED tells court
New Delhi (PTI): Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, arrested in an excise scam case, is eating food high in sugar like mangoes and sweets every day despite having type 2 diabetes to create grounds for medical bail, the ED claimed before a court here on Thursday.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) made the claim before special judge for CBI and ED cases, Kaveri Baweja, who directed the Tihar jail authorities to file a report in the matter, including Kejriwal's diet chart.
Kejriwal has moved the court seeking permission to consult his regular doctor via video conference because of fluctuating sugar levels.
The judge directed the authorities concerned to file the report by tomorrow, when the court is likely to take up the matter again.
"Arvind Kejriwal is eating high sugar content food despite having type 2 diabetes. He is consuming 'aloo poori', mango, sweets, daily. This is being done to make grounds for medical bail," the ED told the court.
