No one should be above law

The decision of Indian court to give life imprisonment to god-man Asaram for raping a 16-year-old female devotee at his Jodhpur Ashram is praise worthy. The judgement will set a good precedent and send out a message that even the powerful people are not above the law. This sentencing also brings to fore the warning to those who use their influence to intimidate others. Asaram has a large fan following and 400 ashrams in India and abroad. — Ramesh G Jethwani,Bangalore
