It is not a question of just this being an incident as part of a game. This does involve a fellow countryman being branded something he hasn't been proven for and thus resulting in his absense from professional life and a balck mark on his personality , his charecter etc etc.. This is a question of standing up for one man who has provided substantial joy in the hearts of many an avid cricket lover. This is a question of standing up for the rights of citizens of the world and the world of sport. And Yessss.. I'd feel the same way if Indians are discriminated against in any walk of life.. or for that matter anyone is descriminated against due to their culture, their skin colour or their origins.
And yes , it does hurt me when Indians behave racist too..but in this case, how can anyone say that Harbhajan was the guilty party
