Daphne and Juergen

The story of Daphne and Juergen, that I told here, is also up on rediff.com in a slightly different version -- here. There are also two photographs of the couple.

They, and nearly 200 others, died a year ago today. Let's not forget. Ever.

Very moving story. I omitted to comment last time.

Oh yes..let us etch this into our collective memory...and do what.

Is the Indian state or its people ever capable of any action, such impotency.

Reminds me of Churchill on our Independance....
"Power will go to the hands of rascals, rogues and freebooters. All Indian leaders will be of low calibre and men of straw. They will have sweet tongues and silly hearts. They will fight amongst themselves for power and India will be lost in political squabbles. "
