Aamir Khans most popular TV Satyamev Jayate show, which has been off air for around six months, still has a high recall value among the audiences. Having created a stir in its first season itself, the show still has a crucial impact on some of the countrys major social issues.
In one of the episodes, Aamir had requested the Rajasthan government to set up fast track courts for cases that deserved urgent attention. Within no time, one such fully functional court was set up in Kota which has recently passed verdicts on two cases, and soon will enunciate two more in the coming week (on February 22 and 25).
Stated Svati Chakravarty, co-director and research head, SJ, "We have a confirmation from the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) authority of Kota regarding a defaulting doctor (in a sex determination case), who has now been convicted for two years."
"This decision was taken by the fast-tack court that was formed after Aamir met chief-minister Ashok Gehlot in May 2012. The idea of the court is to pass verdicts within six weeks of hearing a case, and these cases had been languishing in courts across the state since 2006. This is Rajasthans first ever conviction under the PCPNDT Act," she added.
When asked the actor about this recent development, Aamir said, "I congratulate the Rajasthan judiciary and the Rajasthan Government for such dynamic and speedy action in dealing with this urgent social problem, which is plaguing our society."
"The action taken by the Rajasthan Authorities will act as a huge deterrent to other potential offenders of this law. The rest of India needs to follow this lead. The country now waits to see what action the Rajasthan Medical Council takes against the convicted doctors," added Aamir.
Currently the Perfectionist is shooting in Jaipur for Rajkumar Hiranis P.K.. He has Dhoom:3 on his hands as well.
