[Reader-list] Security stepped up in Gujarat town after fresh clash

[Pawan Durani]

Dear Anupam Ji ,

Those were my comments above the main article . And the question was for Javed.

As far as my posting goes , my intent was that let us not view Gujarat
through a communal prism always as was intended by Javed.

Communal clashes , unfortunately , have happened under every
regime...even in communist rule states.

Stop making villain out of Gujarat.

Thanks ...Good wishes

Pawan
