My first post for the Guardian blog, ‘Comment is Free’, is up. Do read 
.
It’s about something fairly talked about here, which is the whole point. I also chose to talk about this — yet again damn it — because nothing is changing. I think it’s time to start yelling in chorus.
Interestingly, I hadn’t anticipated a particular type of response, which is the ‘why is it our business?’ from some (clearly) British readers. When Jess from The Guardian wrote to me saying they want to highlight Indian issues, particularly because they also have Asian readers, I thought the logic was pretty sound. I also imagined that most educated readers are interested in global issues now that the world is shrinking yada yada. Anyway, thankfully, such comments are in the minority.
