I have seen a lot of unjust persecutions begin with a FIR. Can the victims file a FIR to stop the prosecutions?

Under UAPA, there's no chance. It is a draconian, British-era law.

What are fellow lemming's opinions on her remark?

I don't think it is worth anti-nation. At the same time, I don't think Pak gaining control over the region would be good for us.

I haven't seen the vid/audio of the remark, only read about it.

Both India and Pakistan are ruled by political dynasts - the free-thinkers from Comintern warned about this before. And what do we see today? Zaradaris, Bhuttos, Gandhis, Gatkaris, you name it. The two-state theory proposed by the British failed in every state it was applied to - Israel-Palestine, East-West Germany, North-South Korea, and finally, India-Pakistan-Bangladesh.

This is what happens when a bunch of opportunist neo-liberals start licking the boots of their foreign masters, stepping on the hard-work of the actual freedom-fighters, the real brave-hearts, who embraced the visions of anti-imperialism strongly. India should've never been divided, to begin with. We could have rather decentralized on the basis on linguistic identities, reducing the power of the center.
