Palakkad man's Article 14 auto gets all the attention amidst CAA protests -A Satish

-The New Indian Express

As the protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act grow louder all over the country, the relevance of Article 14 is more relevant than ever before.

PALAKKAD:
Anakara is a small village on the Palakkad –Malappuram border. But it has always been in the limelight since the freedom struggle days due to the presence of the Vadakkath tharavadu which has thrown up freedom fighters like A V Kuttimallu Amma who was the KPCC president in 1944, Ammu Swaminathan and her two daughters, Captain Lakshmi and Mrinalini Sarabhai (dancer), Mallika Sarabhai (dancer daughter of Mrinalini) and former MP Subhasini Ali who is the daughter of Captain Lakshmi.

Naturally, the common man of this village is no stranger to politics. It seems P.V. Kunhukuttan, an auto driver of Melazhiyam in Aanakara had a premonition that one day the equality of people could be questioned based on their religion.

How else could you describe the act of Kunhukuttan, an auto driver who has named his vehicle Article 14 — which provides equality for everyone before the law in this country.  "The State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or the equal protection of the laws within the territory of India," says Article 14, which is sported on his vehicle both in front as well as in the rear and was inscribed more than 27 years ago.
