--- On Thu, 29/7/10, [email protected] [email protected] Dangerous trends with most minority community people keeping quiet, being scared with goonda tactics of self proclaimed religious groups enforcing their writ. A stupid government playing dirty politics and the police is being futilely chastised in the monsoon session in progress. Also on the national stage by the few courageous policemen and also outspoken knowledgeable ones like Kiran Bedi and Julio Rebeiro. Dr Kamat is absolutely right about Porvorim, regarding what is really going on! Must be nipped in the bud before it assumes frightening proportions.Anything more idiotic than Shiv Sena in Mumbai forcibly emptying milk tankers on the road as protest with impunity!
