Operation Majnu!

Hot on the heels of Operation Duryodhan comes this. Though this is no sting op but it sure has stung the nation. Beating up couples and that too like dogs is no moral policing. The police says that the park which was in the limelight is a hub for all sorts of ahem...activities.Apparently,couples go beyond just holding hands. If holding hands in public is a crime then you should go and have a look at what all happens in Purana quila,Humayuns tomb and other such "historical" places in Delhi. And as usual the whole thing was politicized and now we have Mayawati and others gunning for Mulayam s neck...you would think she has other pending matters like the Taj corridor scam.
I was watching the coverage of this event on the newly launched CNN-IBN news channel and i was horrified to see that the face of the girls was blurred whereas the faces of the men were shown as it is.How unfair is that?

intolerance is the name of the game. to be intolerant of hindus, christians, muslims, indians, foreigners, expats, NRIs, heterosexuality, homosexuality, celibacy, abstinence, temperance, alcoholism, women, men, animals; of anything and everything.

it must be tiring to have a constant need to tell people they are wrong and that you and you alone are right, but we indians seem to be finding it easier than usual. especially of late. it is of no use blaming political influences or accepted codes of conduct. this is who we have become. we either accept the facts and face them, or we hide in shame and denial. either way, change is coming, and not necessarily for the good.
