This Francois Gautier has intrigued me. He is a Frenchman with an Indian as his wife in India for the past three decades, and pretends to have become more 'Indian' than Indians. That is to say, he has acquired the typical Parivari's stuck mind, about which he may like to cry. That the Indian secularity is mature and robust has been proved by the very factors he has tried to cry about. No one elected Sonia Gandhi as the Congress President and later as a member of the Lok Sabha because she happened to be a Christian. Kalam became President not because he is a Muslim; in fact he was proposed by the BJP itself. MM Singh became PM not because he is a Sikh. That these important positions are occupied by persons who incidentally happen to be members of minority communities itself confirms the robust secularity of the nation, about which the country deserves to feel proud. // Kanchi Seer's case is criminal, and if anyone may cry about his arrest, it is his followers; because he has brought his Mutt to such a sorry pass. // And why his visceral dislike about Sonia Gandhi? Is he jealous that she, an Italian, could attain such a lofty position in India, while he, a French national, could not?

Hi John,
Sonia is where she is not because she is a Christian; Kalam is where he is not because he is Muslim; Dr Singh is where he is not because he is a Sikh; but Shankaracharyar is where he is today is because he is a Hindu!
And finally, you frame Francis Gautier because what he is which is for again Hindu dharma. If want us to see everything as just coincidence then I can only say sorry and be ready for more Francis Gautiers' not necessarily from France but everywhere in India.

Dude Ram, What you are talking about ? Shankaracharya is where is he becos he is Hindu ? You are crazy. Shankaracharya has got into the problem because he is in the path of the "Law". Wait a bit till Law has its say. Once Mr.Shank is cleared of the crime, this article by itself is nonsense. BTW don't forget the all powerful JJ who wields the power in TN. She is a league of her own. Francios is a nincompoop to write wierdo articles...things have no basis. -bye
