Re: [HumJanenge] "Bunker Roy's wife Aruna Roy, is a Maoist"

What's going on and on - This is how colonial masters divided us and ruled us for 200 years. They send Christian missionaries and the British Chengish Khans to produce as many ango indians as possible along with forced conversions.They made english compulsory for the elites and the dynastic rulers who are now the brown sahebs in the forms of politicians , Raja of ----, Nawabs of -----, Maharani of ----, Lords and Sirs of---. Lets not use this site for such mudslinging. Ms Aruna Roy is a respected soul and not a timid soul. Let her live longer for the betterment of this country which is usurped by a few elitists families. --- On Thu, 20/1/11, Nicholas Santiago <nick.santiargo@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: From: Nicholas Santiago <nick.santiargo@yahoo.co.uk> Subject: Re: [HumJanenge] "Bunker Roy's wife Aruna Roy, is a Maoist" To: humjanenge@googlegroups.com Date: Thursday, 20 January, 2011, 8:23 PM Dear Sir, Unlike Mr SD Sharma, I am not an Indian, a Hindu or Brahman. Like you I knew Mrs Aruna Roy, in a professional capacity connected with sponsorship and funding activities. My 2 pence says that Mrs Roy has many facets to her personality and the evolving discussion here brings out many seemingly incompatible aspects of her character and the dichotomy between the public's perception and the private reality :) Nicholas Santiago On Thu, Jan 20, 2011 at 12:01 PM, Malay Dewanji <malaydewanji@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Mr. S.
