		<description><![CDATA[&#160; The Justice Verma committee report, lauded by most people, concludes with these words: &#8220;The recommendations made in this report, unless urgently implemented, will end the exercise conducted by this Committee in futility&#8220;. &#160; You can download the complete report here but the Conclusions and Recommendations are reproduced here for convenience. &#160; As a recent…]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote this blog post in November, 2011 on my old blog. I&#8217;ve simply copied it here. When Kashmir got its first &#8216;dedicated&#8217; Kashmiri language satellite channel, the general response to it was optimistic. Kashmiris began to fancy that they, for a change, will have a voice. Little did they know that this channel was…]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s said that while intelligence has its limits, stupidity has none. “Girls get raped because they are not married off early”, “rapes are consensual”, “rapes happen because men and women interact freely”, “rapes are a conspiracy to malign the government”, and finally, “rapes happen because of chowmein”! Welcome to India. Absurdity is at an all-time…]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is not the first incident of rape. Certainly not the last. The act of rape is perhaps as old as human &#8220;civilization&#8221;. Within one week of the Delhi gangrape incident, another woman has reportedly been raped by three of her neighbours (emboldened, perhaps, by it) at knife point in East Delhi.
