I generally like Raman's columns for the kind of information they provide. However, this person behaves irresponsibly time and again. For the kind of posts he has held in the past, he shouldn't be so narrow minded. In most of his columns, he brings in religion some way or the other. Look at this column for example. So many men, women and children were killed in the bomb blast and this person gives us the number of muslims and Hindus among them. What is he trying to prove by mentioning this? Since the percentage of Pakistani Hindus killed is marginally higher than that of Pakistani muslims, we need to condemn this attack, else it is not necessary to condemn. If this is the way educated and responsible persons think, no surprise that normal persons are posting such abusive and irrelevant comments on the message board.

It seems santa didnt get the point across, what Raman is trying to tell you is that its not neccessary that Paki terrorists will not target samjhauta trian as it will kill muslims, as more hindus travel to India than muslims from pakistan. The reason why the train was targeted was more to spread a feeling of fear among pakistani hindus, and achieving the aim of telling the world that India is not a secure place for tourists.
