Dear Nishrin Jafri Hussain,
Thank you very much for this heartwarming letter of support. What you, your family and thousands of innocent citizens went through in 2002 is barely imaginable.
I still remember that night when my husband returned home. I saw him walk through our gate, his stride still strong and sure; but once he entered our home, for the first time in my life, I saw him loose composure. IPS was my husband’s dream, serving the country was his vocation. That night, I saw that very passion for the forces extinguish in his eyes. Instead, all I could see was grief.
What we are living today is only the consequence of what happened then. Even after all we’ve been through, my husband has not given up his fight to bring Justice to your father; to bring Justice to your mother, and to all those who suffered the loss of friends and families. To bring them whatever solace, whatever closure they could find in seeing the people responsible for the cold-blooded murders of their loved ones being brought to justice. The past sixteen years of our lives have been the consequence of these three terrible days, these three atrocious nights, where gods abandoned us, and the government followed suit.

Dear Nishrin, the abhorrent inactions of power-hungry men and women, who played with human lives for political mileage, will never be forgotten or forgiven.
I do not, for a single moment, regret the fight that my husband led. I do not mourn on the threats we received, on the destruction of my house, the removal of my security guards. Yes, doors may not open as wide as before, and the road to Justice is long. But as long as we stand together, it is not lonely.
To the incredulous, who believe our suffering is the right price to pay for raising our voices, I oppose your resolve.
But to all those sharing our struggle, standing in broad light to demand Justice for your father, for my husband today, I convey our warmest and sincerest gratitude. And to all those silently questioning the timing of last week’s events, uneased by the pernicious feeling that repression and censorship are steadily becoming India’s norms, I ask to stay vigilant. Only at this condition will democracy subsist, and Justice - not retribution, not vengeance - will be brought to our families, and to the families of all those whose suffering has lasted for too long.
With you always,
God bless.

రాజకీయాల నుంచి తప్పుకుంటున్నాను.

రాజ్యసభ సభ్యత్వానికి రేపు 25వ తారీఖున రాజీనామా చేస్తున్నాను.
ఏ రాజకీయపార్టీ లోను చేరడంలేదు. వేరే పదవులో, ప్రయోజనాలో లేక డబ్బులో ఆశించి రాజీనామా చేరడంలేదు.
ఈ నిర్ణయం పూర్తిగా నా వ్యక్తి గతం. ఎలాంటి ఒత్తిళ్లు లేవు. ఎవరూ ప్రభావితం చెయ్యలేదు.…
