Yadav's death


We watched in horror as the deceased Yadav Biswas' memory was dishonored and his family, instead of being permitted to grieve and perform last rites, was humiliated and hassled. It represented a new base level to the already pathetic situation our country now finds itself in.

But I find tremendous hope and optimism. The minute this dirty game was started, our country's media and common people rose up against the conspiracy. And Yadav was not a big political leader or business person that vested quarters got involved for personal gain. I feel like the nation will always rise up against intolerable situations. We have done it in 1952, in 1971, in 1990. On each occasion, we did not become defeated by thinking we are facing an invincible opponent.

Perhaps another glorious date is not too far away for our next big victory.
