Talking about International Day of Democracy, Richa Chadha wrote, "It’s the fag end of #internationaldayofdemocracy... some might argue that democracy itself is at it’s fag end". She further added in brackets, "we can now console each other by telling ourselves that this is a global phenomena". "Can’t help but laugh ruefully at all those who once declared ‘we need a dictatorship’. What can one say, except be careful what you wish for... But unhealed human beings, (which is probably most of us), harbour a strange masochism," Richa Chadha continued.

Richa Chadha on 'Freedom' and 'Equality' 

All humans are born equal, but not all humans are free. Even though freedom is innate, God given... We may be but ripples in time... or a footprint on a wet beach that seems solid for the moment... the human experience is limited to life spent on the planet... and everyone you know, including genocidal dictators, superstars and saints will die one day... as will you and I. For the time being, as we walk each other home... let’s try and be kind. (It’s not always easy). The battle for democracy has always been one of culture ... and freedom... freedom of expression to be precise.
