[Reader-list] A Just Peace in Kashmir? Reflections on Dynamicsof Change By Richard Shapiro

[taraprakash]

Dear Taha. Since this reply may not be of any interest to other listers, I 
am keeping it off line.

I think your suggestion is worth considering. And if the circumstances did 
not deter me, I would definitely do so. The fact is that I do not follow 
Indian media much. I got to know about Manipur's current situation from this 
list. And after that 1 mail I was expecting some postings from "human" 
rights activists. Being out of touch, I do not know how human is being 
defined these days.

As time permits, I will be able to do justice to your expectations. I have 
done my share of contributions towards various social movements, including 
those going on in NagaLand and mManiPur when I was in India.

Thanks
