Sainath's work showed how the combinations of status, poverty and education empowered exploitation and institutional failure. A most telling comment was “All the judges of the Supreme Court do not have the power of a single police constable.”The Judges in all categories were Nick Clarke, Daljit Dhaliwal, Mark Lattimer, Francine Stock, Greg Whitmore, and Peter Wilby."@en }
