நான் என்னுடைய பணிக்காலத்தில் பணி நிமித்தமாக காஷ்மீரிலிருந்து கன்யாகுமாரி வரை, பஞ்சாபிலிருந்து மணிப்பூர் வரை சென்றிருக்கிறேன். எங்கு சென்றாலும் அந்தந்த மாநிலத்தின் எளிய மக்களைச் சந்தித்து உரையாடியிருக்கிறேன். இரு சம்பவங்களைக் குறிப்பிட்டாக வேண்டும். பஞ்சாபில் காலிஸ்தான் பயங்கரவாதத்தின் கடைசி நாட்கள். ஒரு நாள் என்னுடைய சோதனை முடிவதற்கு நேரமாகி விட்டது. இரவு பத்து மணிக்கு மேல். தெருவில் யாரும் இல்லை. என்னுடைய காரோட்டி சீக்கியர். ராணுவத்தில் பணியாற்றி ஓய்வு பெற்றவர். கூட இருந்த இஞ்சினீயரும் சீக்கியர். இருவருக்கும்… Continue reading தீவிரவாதத்தின் நிழலில் – இரு சம்பவங்கள்

The Indian National Congress which led the freedom movement was clear about a few things: 1.
