Visiontar, Good going. ***** Those who disagree with "us" or those who hold radically different views from us are NOT necessarily anti-bikas, anti-Nepal or pro-India and so on. People such as Paramendra are FREE to hold their views, no matter how offensive those views are to most people. Defending Paramendra like this does NOT mean support for what he says. It only means a support for his RIGHT to say. A democracy that cannot tolerate extreme, radical, dissenting views and take them all in strides is NOT a democracy but a madrasa. It is in that spirit of FREE INQUIRY that I, for one, welcome Paramendra's views in the public space, while reserving my right to disagree with him without denouncing him as "Nepal seller" and other overloaded words. oohi ashu
