This refers to the editorial, “A communal cauldron” (October 5). The Dadri murder must be strongly condemned. No civilised society should accept such incidents. The culprits must be brought to justice.
Unfortunately, a terrible tendency that dominates our political class is currently on display with all its insensitivity and hypocrisy. Sundry politicians have jumped into the fray, visiting the suffering family, lending it an explosive communal colour. The media is equally guilty of playing up the incident. No wonder, the villages have protested against the media’s role. Sadly, no attempts were visible to cool passions and bring back trust.
