 Guptaji,

 However, you have meant no offence to me, since I unequivocally
concur with your views. Its by lapse that you have mentioned my
name as contributor.
 Scanning through the lot of mails we receive these days you will
establish the identity of the writer.

Shri Rohit ji,
 
No need to take trouble of searching through archive. I confess
that I had written that mail. I am thankful to Gupta ji, that due
to his mitaken quoting, We came to know: 

1. that you do not write such immatured and ill-thought stuff.

2. that you do not even fully read through such messages.

3. that you believe that Rawat, the person who penned it, has no
sense of history, nor of any self-respect.

Hmm......

Though I agree with this line of thinking, some times I myself
feel that these thought are only of those "haves" who have
Banglow, car, A.C., children reading in hillstation boarding
english college, wife coordinator of kitty club,...

I wonder whether there is any menial labour, any maidservant, any
begger, any tempo driver, and kisaan, any hamaal in this list who
can tell us what he feels freedom has given to him or taken from
him.

Those lords are our creation to the extent that on the night
after the polling results are declared, his men will kidnap our
wife or daughter and rape them, then for years he will syphon
grant money for us towards his people.

The world looks green when we have green glasses of money on our
eyes.

Wonder whether member will be honest enough to identify whether
they are haves or are have-nots.
