Dear Sir,
This refers to the letter, "Bathless for 72 hours"(AT, August 3) by DK Baruah, where he has criticised the politicians, particularly the Rajya Sabha MP of the Samajwadi Party, Jaya Bachchan for her indifference towards the mass-people who were under the havoc of flood.
The news item had appeared in one of the national newspapers.It was mentioned at the end of the news that the Rajya Sabha MP of Samajwadi Party was in Delhi when Mumbai went under water. It is natural for a woman to worry about her family at a time when the family is in distress at a time when she is away from her family. I don't see anything wrong in her comment.Moreover her comment does not imply that she is totally indifferent about the Mumbai masses as the report did not mention anything about her views on flood victms. The report gave priority only to the Bachchans who were also under the influence of the flood as is evident from the news item.
We have the right to criticise the government for its wrong actions but some people criticise only for the sake of criticism.
Yours etc,.
