Dear Aditya
So, you are the only one on the right path, and everyone else is at
mistake, and you won't sit quiet until you reform everyone. Good to
know.
By the way, you ask me not to bring un-related issues on the same
page. But since I have been seeing your mails on Sarai list, I see
that whatever is topic, you (and your friend KPs) always stretch it to
the problems of Kashmiri pundits. If we are talking of communalism in
UP or Gujarat, you shout: why isn't no one talking of the plight of
KPs. When we are talking of farmers committing suicides, you ask, why
is not on concerned about KPs, and so on. So, it is you who bring
unrelated issues together. In this case itself, when I mentioned
banning saffron extremists, you brought in SFI and AISA, although I
haven't understood what is the connection. I gave you that list of
dates (of origin of those organizations) only as a reaction to your
mail about "initators".
