The concept of Sole national language is the basic hurdle in understanding diversity of a nation state. Nation States failed to recognize it under totalitarianism yet UN human right charter resolved this issue in 1948. In 2008, after continuous struggle finally, UN accepted mother tongue as a basic human right.

Physical Torture by security person Is State brutality but it become even worst if reporting is bad
Physical Torture by security person Is State brutality but it become worst if reporting is bad
A Case of Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old who died at Jan 10. He was black & he was tortured by all 5 black officers but it was reported as a racist incident that diverted the real issue.
Its not a case of Punjab police but it happened in the most advance country i-e the United States of America and it is a case of State Torture. In this case both victim & killers are balck, so it has no resemblance with #GeorgeFloyd case But media generally linked it. It resemble if you consider both as case of State tirture by security persons. It is case against the sanctuity of uniform indeed. But from India, Pakistan eleswhere the case of #Tyre reported otherwise.
A police officer sprays Mr. Nichols in the face with a chemical spray. “Give me your hands!” yell the officers, as Mr. Nichols tries to wipe his face. “All right, all right,” he says, and moves to put his hands behind his back. “Watch out, I’ll spray your eyes again,” one officer says as he sprays Mr. Nichols another time. The New York Times
New York Times reported that all 5 police officers are black
Five police officers who were involved — Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmitt Martin III, Desmond Mills Jr. and Justin Smith — were fired. The officers, who are Black, were charged on Thursday with second-degree murder and kidnapping, among other charges.
