I am surprised at rediff's editorial staff for allowing any tom dick and harry to post articles. What are the credentials of mr Rishi to credit any city with best or worst tags. For that matter If I say a particular city is the best will it hold water? No way. So dear rediff editors please follow at least a semblance of editorial sense before posting any articles

Everything in the article was fine and I guess its the authors right to express himself.
I for instance... dint think favourably about beef and pork being off the menu... coz I dig them... but I respect his opinion.
However, in my opinion I wud prefer to see Secular and pluralistic Bangalore continue the way it has without the needless grafting in of religious begotism... and fundamentalism.
all said and done... the beauty of Bangalore is in its tolerance.
I for one am among the several boys of all communities who played cricket everyday on Bangalore's needlessly curfewed streets as the North burned courtesy the Babri Masjid demolition or the Mandal commission.

The Author is simply trying to post his opinion.I don't see anything wrong in the article above. In fact it is a well written, well balanced article.
As far as any tom-dick-harry writing for rediff is concerned, I urge you to write an article yourself and send it across to rediff.com. If its worthy enough, you will sure find it published.

I agree with aditya. To write an article a person need not have any credentials, if his thought is good and his writitng is clean anybody can wrtie and post articles. Thats why any news papers would publish common mans views and articles . Just becaus readers are biased they may not like the article, I dont see anything wrong in Girish's article.thanks rediff for publishing..
