Ammi was stitching a blouse for Diwali when she put her needle down and said, *“Insaaf ka panna palatna chahiye”* — the page of justice should turn. I thought of that while I was sourcing fabric this morning, watching the news blur on the shop TV. All these degrees and debates, and still, my mohalla knows what it means when a neighbourhood boy gets picked up — the power never skips a beat, it just changes its shoes. My blouse-stitcher Sunita said it best: *“Yeh court kya karega, humein toh roz apna karna padta hai.”* Let the courts sort their papers — I’ll keep paying my two women on time, that’s the only redistribution I trust.
