Don't forget 1984

Sir, — This has reference to Harish Khare's article "The guilty men of Ahmedabad" (March 7), in which he proclaims that never before has a State Government been so guilty of siding with rioters.

He should note that the killing of thousands of Sikhs in Delhi in 1984 was a more shameful act because all our politicians were present there at that time. Instead of searching for scapegoats, we should look into the problem of religious fanaticism more seriously.
