Its a refreshing thought from Shobha unlike the doomsday self flagellating 'intellectuals' whose only motto in life is to beat up Hindus and how bad they are and how innocent Islamist jihadis are. The other day Ms Shabana Azmi noted how she is trying to change westerners impression of India as a nation of 'Fanaticism' ?????? (sic)....for the life of me I couldnt figure out how she came up with that caveat and how she had delved into the western mind to imagine that impression. Probably Ms Azmi was thinking about Pakistan and talking about India...Pray and hope Shobha, despite her inane observations of Pakistani men, do not get into the fashionable bandwagon of India/Hindu bashing popularized by Kuldip Nayar, Khushwant Singh, Mahesh & Pooja Bhatt, Shaban Azmi and dozens of such well paid speakers/writers/intellectuals.
