Girish, you are insensitive. How can loss of life be taken in a flippanyt attitude? I pray to God that He gives his family the strength to bear this irreparable loss.

five people died in a horrible road accident in Bangalore. I dont see that anywhere in any news channels. Maybe an NRI life is more valuable than a middle class Indian.

.....so if one of our family members dies, that has less 'value' or is less worth grieving than if someone else's does? How can one measure grief and loss in this way? I think its completely insensitive.
Expressing sympathy and grief on a personal level need not mean that one is ignoring larger political issues.

You are right. All these ppl leave India and go to settle in US, and they get attention. Moreover, they do not have courtesy to look after their parents or their family and just need the fame... "Working in America" :)

I may have to support this view of Zurich...bcoz...the parents and family of the deceased do not have passports atleast....Moreover the family members declared that the deceased's ast wish to be burried in university premises...is there anything skeptical...

u r partially correct.sometime we r responding too much on certain thing due to media hype.but u can not equalise death due to accident and this type of death. As it has merit to respond sensitively.

Ashish, do you remember Noida killings. How late the news came into limelight. That guy was killing people for over a year with impunity. Just wake up to reality and make lots of money

they have gone to US for a better life and have become a US citizen. So US govt will take good care of them.
