God's Printing Errors??

Waah, kya kahen "With the cover of the sun and the moon The earth is a beautiful book. But starvation, poverty and slavery... God, are these your sermons Or printing errors?" The power of thought so vast, Imagination to stir other minds, setting aside the gore her own lifestyle evoked and to Balance five different relationships all her life  is something only achievable  by an AMRITA PRITAM. 

That is why 2002 is important for 2019

Something I read last week stayed in my mind and festered: “….why is 2002 important in 2019? Because it is the crucible of all politics now in India – offering a model of domination and fear now visible everywhere as successful politics.    The complicity, guilt, indifference and amnesia of the middle classes resulted in “performative violence” – of boasting about heinous acts committed, now by the lynch mobs who video and circulate to replay violence committed as an example?" That is why 2002 is important..... What does that say of our society?
