It would be in the fitness of things if goanetters wherever they may be, write to the Indian embassies or Human Rights Commissions in their respective countries protesting against the continued violence against the christians which has been going on unabated for over a month in Orissa especially. They may also consider petitioning their governments to monitor / check funding to organisations like VHP / BD or any of their affiliates which are engaged in terrorist activities against minorities.
If we not act today, do not be surprised if a similar fire engulfs Goa tomorrow. Nobody imagined that Mangalore would become a trouble spot. Pl see news report below.

Kandhamal District Collector Krishan Kumar said the killings took place at Sindhupanka village in the Tumudibandha police station area late Thursday night. "They attacked the house of Dushashan Majhi and hacked him to death with an axe,” police sources said and added that a 15-year-old boy from a neighbouring village, who was present in Majhi's house, was also killed with a sharp weapon. Nobody was arrested and efforts were continuing to capture the culprits, sources said. With this, the death toll in the sensitive district mounted to 35 since violence erupted after the killing of VHP leader Laxmanananda Saraswati on August 23, they said. The police have arrested 34 persons since Thursday from various places, raising the number of arrests so far to 371, they said. Curfew, which had been clamped in areas under nine police stations, was relaxed during the day to help people go about their daily chores, they said. As many as 119 out of the 505 licenced guns in the district have been surrendered to the authorities by the weapon holders following an official order, the sources said. Confiscation proceedings would be initiated against those who failed to deposit their guns. © Copyright 2008 PTI. All rights reserved. -- Will the all new Indica Vista zip ahead of the Suzuki Swift?
