Gujarat forgotten

Sir, — In the space of one week, Gujarat has been forgotten. The Jammu killings were horrible; but were not the killings in Gujarat equally bad? In one case, the Government is willing to go to war, but in the other it won't even arrest the leaders. The perpetrators of the Gujarat killings walk freely. They need no external support; they get all that they need from within our own administration. All talk of ``anti-terrorism'' will remain meaningless until these people are held responsible for their crimes.

Shankar Gopal,
