Banning Choices?
In a far away New York, a lawmaker wants to ban i-pods (and other tech gadgets) , incase people get run over.
In Great Britain a minister causes an outrage by telling women they should take off their veils.
In Delhi, the minister in charge of Information & Broadcasting - Priya Ranjan Das Munshi - wants to ban any ‘adult’ content that may morally compromise us.
And in Calcutta, the left is up in arms with Rahul Dravid endorsing the suryanamaskar. Â
What is it about politicians world over - of all shades & hues - that cannot accept the concept of either diversity or that of personal responsibility & choice?
