I wish to ask Mr. Dasgupta, the self-styled "defender of democracy" to kindly look at what is happening in his home state West Bengal. There is a dictatorial state government is place and police is only an arm of the government to keep the citizens under "control". There is fear in the air and atrocities committed by the "cadres" is well known in India and abroad. The police also behaves as cadre of the ruling Left Front. The residents enjoy virtually no freedom in West Bengal and the worst atrocities are committed by the police and cadres on their political opponents. Coomon people also are targetted if they fail to accept the dominance of the Left Front. Mr. Dasgupta should first set his own house in order.
I do not condone the happenings at Ghaziabad in general and at the Honda plant in particular. All I want to say is Mr. Dasgupta has no credentials at all to talk about "democracy" and "police atrocities". We do not want to live in a democracy "managed" by the communists.
