Sir — This refers to the article, “Authors and their selective protests” (October 29) by Ashoke Pandit. The pseudo-secular writers who have returned their award, had predicted that, if Narendra Modi becomes the Prime Minister, India will go to hell in the handbasket.
However, they waited for about 16 months, and when their prediction did not materialise, they found an excuse in the Dadri incident. They were so desperate, that the very obvious hypocrisy did not bother them.
