The #Suoreme Court of #Brazil stands up for justice and shows that nobody is above the law! Great inspiration for #India and other global South countries: #Bolsonaro found guilty of plotting coup.

Congrats to all that fought this battle and succeeded in halting latest assault on #democracy in #Bihar and #India! Activists on ground should continue to be active as #ECI will find loopholes! BJP #RSS will keep trying to distract #Mahagathbandhan from campaigning. Beware!
