New Delhi: June 14, 2008: 0930hrs
Barkha Dutt, the feisty television journalist, has finally woken up to the fact that “the State can lie”.
She asks the precise question:
“When the Minister of State for Home unfailingly points to a ‘foreign hand’ each and every time, without a blink of the eye, do we wonder whether he's lying?”
Of course he is.
Let us never forget the fact that we in India suffer from huge INTERNAL PROBLEMS.
There are many little – and sometimes not so little – internal wars that are going on all over the country.
And their number is increasing.
We have over 200 (out of 600) districts being run by armed Naxalite rebels.
There is Kashmir, Manipur and Nagaland.
And now the Darjeeling hills are burning.
Foreign hand?
What utter crap!
