Indian cartoonist arrested for sedition!

The politicians are nervous, it seems, outrageously, and have gone after cartoonist Aseem Trivedi. See this.   This is outrageous!  What is happening to freedom of speech in India?

PS: A longer collection of Trivedi's cartoons is here.  (for some of them, Hindi is needed).

PPS: Cartoons against Corruption Facebook page.

This is basically the same mindset that asks Washington Post to retract and apologize for an opinion piece criticizing the Prime Minister and then spreading fase rumors that the journo in question has apologized. And this was when Wp did not write anything which is not being said in Indian media every day for such a long time.

I actually pity Manmohan Singh. Look how far he has fallen. From a honest, efficient and visionary professional to a weak prime minister who does not have any control over his own ministers and is presiding over the biggest scams so far in Indian history.
