Neither a Prime Minister, nor a Vismaya, nor a Mohanlal, nor a Mammootty has any greater standing, any greater worth.

Yes… Vismaya thought deeply, and said.

Vismaya responded and spoke her mind.

Now, even while pushing back against Major Ravi, Vismaya responded and spoke.

She responded in keeping with her own sense of democratic decency and human nature.

After all, response and responsiveness themselves signify life and being alive.

If response stops, if one does not respond, it is taken to mean there is no life, one is not living, one is considered dead.

Whether it is a democracy or each citizen within a democracy, if response stops, if one does not respond, in the same way it is taken to mean that both he and democracy itself are not living, are considered dead.

Like Vismaya, many others too — some more, some less — have thought deeply and responded, and have said and continue to say many things.

In a democracy, every single person has the same value, the same weight.

In a democracy, no one is lesser, no one is greater.

In a democracy, neither a Prime Minister, nor a Vismaya, nor a Mohanlal, nor a Mammootty has any greater standing, any greater worth.
