This "Congres Attack"of Arundhati neither has any subsantance, nor the tall (but hollow) claims of tolerance of the State/ Majoritarian Conscience made by the Congress leader do contain an iota of honesty. It rather transpires as a typically baleful piece of hate speech aimed at human rights campaigners and activists. This is not only true about the Congress spokespersons,but also holds good in many of the taken for granted assumptions of the State-Police-Media-Public Consciousness combination. You just ask to any of your "janakeeya comrades"to comment on this view expressed on Kashmir by the Congress spokesperson; I believe they might also say similar things on such "loose cannons",though with a few hair-splitting arguments added, about the unacceptability of (so called) anarchism!
