Justice for Sita: Meet the lawyer who is angry with Lord Ram

At a time when women are fighting for their right to pray, a 31-year-old lawyer from Bihar has filed a petition against Lord Ram for maltreating his wife. The lawyer Thakur Chandan Kumar Singh who has filed a petition against Radhe Maa in the past for not acting like a godwoman told CatchNews.com: “Sita was the epitome of perfect wife, he went to exile with him and endured all hardships with Rama. Sukh dukh mein unka saath diya. How could he leave her on the words of spies who questioned her character."

Singh is a quite a litigant enthusiast and has in the past filed cases against former J&K CM Farooq Abdullah and Hardik Patel. When asked if it was a publicity stunt, the lawyer replied: “I know there can be no action taken against Rama. But there should be a debate on it. All I want is justice for Sitaji."

On Monday, the court heard the case and asked the petitioner who to punish in such an incident and also wondered why no date of abuse was filed.

The petitioner said he approached the court to seek justice for Sita. "I am in court, begging for justice to Sita." The complaint-case was filed against Lord Rama and his brother Lakshman in the court of chief judicial magistrate in Sitamarhi on Saturday by lawyer Thakur Chandan Kumar Singh.

Singh is a resident of Dumri Kala village under Majorganj police station.

"Sita, who was a devoted wife, always fulfilled her duty in good and bad times with her husband. How could such a crime be committed against her? Rama also ignored how could a lonely woman spend time in deep forest," Singh said.

Stating that Sita was daughter of Mithila in Bihar and justice was not done to her by Lord Rama, Singh said the aim of his petition was to seek justice for Sita. "My petition in the court is not to hurt religious sentiments."
