Greetings Pranayarani: Your gripe is with The Hindu, the Government of India and perhaps with Mr. Modi too. It is not with Mr. Avinash Shahi.
Please note that Mr. Shahi did not editorialize the Hindu article. He merely provided a link. Sharing a link to a news article does not imply endorsement. Hence, according to your post below, your issue is not with the off topic nature of the post but with the content of the Hindu news item. Avinash was merely the bearer of bad tidings as far as you are concerned. So demolish the message, not the medium or the messenger! Please consider sharing your perspective with the Hindu's op ed page much like what Mr. Rahul Bajaj from this list has done so brilliantly in the past. Please go to the Access India archives to read two of his expertly written Hindu op eds.
