Dr Shahabuddeen was responsible for the 1980 Constitution

Dear Editor,

Much tribute has been paid to Dr Mohammed Shahabuddeen upon his passing in your media. People have focused on all the positives. But we must not forget that Dr Shahabuddeen was responsible for the current flawed Constitution, that messy document which has been used to minimize and trample upon our democratic rights. What is the point of being very brilliant if you use that brilliance for wrong acts?

Yours faithfully,

Vishnu Bisram
