Daily killings
Daily killing of teenagers or even less (9 year old tiny boy) by the so-called security forces, is highly unfortunate. It speaks of the crisis we are facing. What should we do? Normally a bridge between the people and the Centre is the establishment in power. But would any bridge work in such a situation. Certainly not. Any cosmetic treatment or attempt to bridge the gap would be too insufficient a treatment. Politics apart, let all of us -particularly those in power, both here and in Delhi-activate their conscience with a humane heart and place themselves with the sufferers and then feel the pain.
