Should India remain silent?
Should India remain silent?
The above news report mentions that George Fernandes, the former defence minister in the Vajpayee government was strip searched twice in the US, once while on an official visit and once in transit. That's pathetic! But typically, we Indians will not make a song and dance about it and will let other people walk all over us :-(
I wonder what's in our pysche that makes us take injustice and mistreatment lying down.
The best thing would be to lodge an official protest and decline any official visit to the US by any Indian government official / public servant until the US officially apologises for this incident and makes a solemn promise that this will never occur again.
