Dangerous stand

Sir, — The statement of the former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Kalyan Singh, that the demolition of the Babri Masjid was "an act of god" is a dangerous assertion, reminiscent of Osama bin Laden's expression of joy after the destruction of the World Trade Center in New York. What a similarity in the mindset of communalists!

T.S. Rao,
Visakhapatnam, A.P.

Sir, — December 6 is not a day to be remembered but to be well forgotten. Remembering it every year in the form of security alerts and subsequent media publicity only kindles unhappy memories.

S.T.C. Sudhakar,
Tuticorin, T.N.
