Manoj Padhi,

Obviously there is no point in debating with you but if you have to speak on 
these matters please don't put things out of context and dont just talk about 
one side of the story.

Firstly, if you happen to follow POSCO situation closely you would definitely 
know that many old women were seriously injured last year when pro POSCO goons 
attacked with crude bombs, swords, etc. You might say its not true and all that 
but it has been recorded on camera.

Strangely an IAS officer of Orissa govt applauded this heinous act and no 
action was taken. You would also know that young Dula Mandal lost his life in 
another attack earlier this year. Then 5 crates of bombs and many swords were 
recovered from pro POSCO goons.

The media has been chronicling the attacks so far so there is no debate on 
this. The reality of the man whose palm was chopped off is also there for you 
to see if you are willing. As far as Lenin Kumar is concerned, his magazine or 
book is yet to be banned but he is in prison.

Hate speeches by fundamentalists have been freely allowed and it is unfortunate 
that a leftist writer is being punished rather than promoted. Today there is 
one Lenin Kumar so his voice is muffled. But tomorrow there might be more like 
him who will dare to raise their voice against injustice.
