India's courts keep unblocking the small man — and that says something about the state
A frozen bank account over Rs 560, a murder convict registering property from prison, a child custody fight settled in favour of welfare over ideology. The Indian state's coercive machinery keeps running into its own courts — and the pattern is the story.
Desk note: Monexus reads this week's Indian-Express court cluster not as a string of disconnected human-interest stories but as a single, low-key data point about where the friction in Indian governance is actually landing — between an expanding coercive administration and a judiciary still willing, case by case, to slow it down.
