hi i was not condemning any one.. though i might sound so ... and it's not just a chitralekha issue that is of my concern i m least concerned abt whether sara joseph, ajita and dilip raj fall on one side or other my intention to "irritate " people through this discussion forum was to focus the attention of this small group into some invisible side of kerala discourses... i was not attempting that ajita or sara joseph come forward and take up the issue.. even those who have done that had problems as chitralekha never remain within their imagination of a "victim" it's abt how the so called civil society in kerala takes up issues, u have pointed out that udayakumar becomes less newsworthy, chitralekha, neetu, rajni all remain victims of our insensitive civil society not only samskarika nayakar, the academics, politicians, activists etc etc in kerala seem to be afraid of initiating debate on caste.. samskarika nayakar r a product of such environment as well without addressing the caste question, chitralekhs issue need not possibly be debated morality and politics r just secondary i am glad that at least some people responded.. if an e-group can help propagating the case of chitralekha and she gets some relief, good...such attemts should be supported ... as she is a victim of "untouchability" and caste discrimination(remember she had to run away from her village after the incident), it's an opportunity for the academia to re-think on its analytical priorities of course these r not mandatory, but need not remain only as personal choices thanks and regarsd to all
