Valentine’s Day

We need to remind our Hindu Valentine Day vigilantes about Khajuraho, Konark, and Kamasutra.

We should remind the anti-Valentine’s Day Islamists that India is a secular democracy and that celebrating the Day is within the limits of the law of the land. Expression of love is perhaps the greatest gift — use it or lose it. The least these confused souls can do is to mind their business.

Every Valentine’s Day, a few “moral police” make a brouhaha, saying it is against our culture, and so on. What is wrong in youth celebrating love and socialising with the opposite sex?

The cartoon on the subject (Feb. 14) was one of the best I have seen in recent days. It spoke volumes.
