| Message | Dear Ms. Jayashree and Mr. Vijayakumar,
What you are doing is extremely courageous and cannot be lauded enough. It is, however, frightening how corrupt politicians have become and how fractitious Indian polity has turned out to be. This combination makes your work and your life a struggle, and your goals that much more difficult to reach. Corruption in India (as elsewhere) is a equal opportunity seducer. The Left, Right, Center -- everyone is in its grip. Keep the Bhagavad Gita in your purse/pocket, and fight hard. I wish you both the very best.
Sincerely,
Ramesh Rao Chair, Dept of Communication Studies and Theatre Longwood University Farmville, VA 23909 |
