Kamalda,
Great observation there ..i agree with yr comments and as a pet owner i am
horrified to read about that incident .
Ambika bhen :-)
If yr husband used his troops to search that dog, shame on him and his
troops. Indian tax payers are not paying army for such mission .
If he went to village elder and just requested him to find out from his village
folks if they have seen that dog and holding it...that i guess is FINE as
village elders in many NE communities are well respected and folks listen to
them .....we dont know the details and I am giving yr husband a benefit of
doubt here.
Pls send a letter to that newspaper with some sort of clarification on this
article which has angered us here. We will welcome that.
take care
another not required Indian
