If that were the case, dowry deaths would be non-existent by this time. Untouchability would have been a thing of the past. His unimaginative and primitive mind can only think of draconian laws that will inevitably be used to harass the minorities and the powerless.

CST is the true icon of Mumbai. It is through this railway station hundreds of Indians from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Tamilnadu have poured into Mumbai over the years, transforming themselves into Mumbaikars and built the Mumbai of today along with the Marathis and Kolis<\/p>\n<p>But the channels would not recognise this. Nor would they recognise the thirty odd dead bodies strewn all over the platform of CST. No Barkha dutt went there to tell us who they were. But she was at Taj to<br \/>\nshow us the damaged furniture and reception lobby braving the guards. And the TV cameras did not go to the government run JJ hospital to find out who those 26 unidentified bodies were. Instead they were<br \/>\nagain invading the battered Taj to try in vain for a scoop shot of the dead bodies of the page 3 celebrities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apurva, a blogger from India, writes:<br \/>\nIn the midst of all this, we had Mr Advani talking about the need for stricter laws to control terrorism.
