Emergency Prisoner Refuses Honor, Seeks Justice from Minister

Imagine a man who was put in jail a long time ago for standing up for what he believed in.

Now, many years later, he was supposed to get an award for his bravery on India's Independence Day.

But he didn't want it!

Instead, he gave the government a letter asking for help with a problem he's been dealing with for almost 60 years.

He bought a house but was then falsely called a renter because he wouldn't pay a bribe.

Even though he won in court, he still doesn't have the rights to his house.

He said that getting an award isn't important to him, what he really wants is the justice he deserves.
