How to bring the dead back to life
by Koustuv Chatterjee on Feb 28, 2007 12:18 AM

As improbable as it may seem, in our country we seem to be practicing this feat for ages. We don't let the dead die and rest in peace. When will we ever stop living in the past and start looking at the future?
Aurangzeb and Dara Shikoh, regardless of their points of view, are both dead. They don't impact our lives anymore. Instead, let%u2019s look at what we can achieve in the days to come. As Indians, rather than Hindus or Muslims.
And frankly, where there are millions who go to bed hungry, the debate whether one dead king was good or bad seems rather inconsequential. Let's first solve the problems that are more pressing and alive. Then we can ponder over the dead and their deed till the end of time.
