[Reader-list] Justice for Soumya - Please join Us !

[Aditya Raj Kaul]

True. I agree with some parts. But, those who remain silent on road and are
only commenting just always on internet on everything are the first in that
list of foolish people.
Just to correct you; Priyadarshini Mattoo was no elite women. Kindly study a
bit and then write your comments.

Love
Aditya Raj Kaul
