Good point, Surya. I might be the messiah from my group. But you know what ? You will find a small group of people from every community who have made their objective in life to invoke anti-nationalistic, or anti-minority or anti-whatever that provokes riots, anger and what not. I have personally been a victim on several occassions, but does that mean I start writing columns on how bad Hindus are treating Muslims in India ?? Of course not, cuz I know they are a small number who are mostly un-educated, not widely traveled, not schooled properly, came from a communal background, etc etc. This happens in every culture, city, state and country of the world.
The point I am trying to make here is that anyone who is browsing REDIFF.com and reading up on Shahshi Tharoor's resignation is ought to be , well.. educated, smart, open-minded, Indian and possess balanced-opinion. So when I read comments made on Hindu-Muslim trust, and Taliban, etc, it saddens me cuz then I picture INDIA going to the dumps.
I would strongly suggest you read up "The World is Flat" and you will know what the whole world thinks about INDIA today, and they will continue to think that way, unless we start hearing comments by people like Prabhudas & Rashmi earlier on.
