two editorials appeared in the telegraph on the same day, on feb 13, 2006.
one was about some calcutta policemen harrassing a couple from bangalore. this is what it had to say: "Such an orchestrated offence, involving more than one policeman, calls for a far more immediate and unsparing response because it points towards a systemic problem within the police force." http://www.telegraphindia.com/1060213/asp/opinion/story_5837655.asp even as the first editorial was so clear-headed, the second was strained and difficult, as it tries to convince us to ignore the death of ajit mahanta. "For the dialogue aims at a much larger goal and should not be the casualty of isolated incidents, however unhappy." http://www.telegraphindia.com/1060213/asp/opinion/story_5837488.asp the police harrassment in calcutta is a "systematic problem" but the death of ajit mahanta was an "isolated incident". the contrast is remarkable. xourov __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
