Resist Fear, Defend Freedom: Stop SLAPPs, Stop Surveillance

This video exposes how India’s democracy is under siege through SLAPPs (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation), draconian laws like UAPA, and unchecked digital surveillance. From the DHFL scam victims fighting corporate–state collusion, to students, journalists, and whistleblowers imprisoned or silenced, the message is clear: truth-telling has been criminalized. Drawing from Tagore’s vision of a fearless India, the video demands strong anti-SLAPP protections, accountability in surveillance, and safeguards for free speech — reminding us that defending dissent is defending the Constitution itself.

DHFL Scam and the Death of Public Trust: Time for a Truth and Accountability Commission!

This appeal calls for the creation of a Judicial Truth and Accountability Commission to investigate the Supreme Court’s April 1, 2025 verdict on the DHFL insolvency case, which allegedly legitimised a flawed resolution plan favouring corporate interests while wiping out the life savings of lakhs of small investors, including widows, senior citizens, and the differently abled. Citing alleged collusion between regulators, the RBI-appointed CoC, and corporate actors, as well as parallels with electoral manipulation, it frames the case as part of a broader pattern of financial authoritarianism under the NDA regime (2014–ongoing). The Commission is envisioned to audit judicial reasoning, regulatory conduct, and the IBC process, outlaw SLAPP suits, and ensure systemic reforms so that courts and institutions uphold constitutional accountability over corporate power.

Landmark Victory in the DHFL Chronicle: A New Ray of Hope for the Victims

On 31 July 2025, the Chandigarh State Consumer Commission delivered a landmark ruling in the DHFL scam, holding Catalyst Trusteeship, CARE Ratings, and Brickwork Ratings liable for negligence and ordering them to compensate an investor—marking the first time market gatekeepers, not just the defaulter, were held accountable. This breakthrough offers all DHFL victims a second path to justice beyond the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, empowering them to pursue trustees, rating agencies, and other enablers. Once in a Blue Moon Academia (OBMA) has long called for such accountability, urging victims to unite, gather evidence, sign petitions, and build a sustained public movement to turn this precedent into systemic change.
