I'm with rethink on this one! It is Gaurishankar's good gesture that he clarified the scenario when he clearly didn't need to. Just because he felt that it was a mistake doesn't warrant that it is his fault.

GT like you meticulously wrote above on how  "We Nepalis have the habit of not admitting to our mistakes" and I think you quickly forgot that it applies to you as well. How is it GauriShankar's fault when he has clearly stated that he'd revealed his sources during his recitation. It is us, who scrutinized and  quicky resorted to or almost resorted to calling him a thief without any credible evidence. I see this "holier than thou" attitude pretty irritating in sajha once in a while.

If anything, you and others, who were so sure that a theft had occurred, man up and apologize! You will not  be a lesser of a Man.
