Hope you ain’t referring to my blogpost mate
On a more serious note, I think Mr. Singh (manmohan & arjun) needs to think long & hard about what they are doing to the fabric of our society!

When we were in college there were some poor souls who died from self(?) immolation to protest against VP Singh and the Mandal Comission… What a waste! VP Singh is probably still alive or may have died by f***ing too much… Hope such desperate people have better sense this time… if you know what I mean.
Serious repercussions on individual ministers is the only answer. That can only stop this kind of nonsense once and for all. When the Politicians know the consequences they will not dare to play these cheap tricks to gain popularity.
Hope the bastards burn in hell …
Jai Hind!

Jai Hind: I do not agree that “Rang De Basanti” is the right route to follow. Also a personal attack on anyone is not the answer to a fairly complex problem. I also think burning yourself will not serve the purpose. A public debate, and an active participation in framing the socio-political agenda is what is required.
I also see from time to time comments on a numbe of blogs & in national media that the intelligentsia can’t do anything; that the people in villages & slums hold the real political power, etc etc. This seems to me to be an easy way out! The message seems to be “since debating won’t change anything, let’s not even debate an issue”. What utter rot! I do agree that we need to do more than talk, but to use that as an excuse to stifle debate, is to give in to the self-appointed representatives of people’s wills.
Blogs & national media all provide us fora to discuss these issues, and to mould public opinion. That’s the first step.
