Opinion - Letters to the Editor

Too little, too late

Sir, — This has reference to Supriya Roychowdhury's news analysis `Too little, too late' (Aug. 26). She has rightly said that ``it is too little, and too late'' since thousands of citizens have been tortured by the Gujarat Government and its goondas. After all these, the Prime Minister comes out to discipline his Chief Minister for his utterances and the Deputy Prime Minister L.K. Advani, goes to London to apologise for the murders committed in Gujarat.

If he was honest enough, Mr. Advani should have gone to Gujarat the next day after the atrocities were committed and apologised to the affected families. To please the foreign press/media, he had taken three months to condemn the atrocities committed by his own party Government in Gujarat. I salute Ms. Chowdhury for the bold article.
