This is a traditional gesture of respect towards the groom, his family & their guests. <BR/><BR/>It appears that the barbers took the money and then declined to honour their side of the contract at the last minute.sanjayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14068250323104396280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070362.post-1127771878651354102005-09-27T03:27:00.000+05:302005-09-27T03:27:00.000+05:30I'll find another report like it -- from somewhere...<I>I'll find another report like it -- from somewhere else in my Security Council-ready country.<BR/></I><BR/><BR/>Given the shoddyhuman rights record we've observed for these current security council member nations, India's more than ready, don't you think?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070362.post-1127757914251977252005-09-26T23:35:00.000+05:302005-09-26T23:35:00.000+05:30It's also what ordinary Indians do.

And my feeling is, what those ordinary Indians do terrorises far more people, far oftener, than anything the shadowy types do. <BR/></I><BR/>The Laskar or Al Queda types disappearing after the crime and our IAS and IPS officials being clueless as usual is perfectly understandable. But with these 'ordinary terrorising Indians' what's preventing our justice/judiciary from throwing these idiots behind bars? <BR/><BR/>Only reason I can think of is that our guardians of law/order (read babus like j b d'souza types) are willing to turn a blind eye in exchange of a few bucks or some favors.<BR/><BR/>BTW, Dilip, how's J B D'Souza's construction business with ex-MP Mrinal Gore coming along? "No bidding" contracts after the deluge and demolition must be keeping him very busy?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070362.post-1127714305805738282005-09-26T11:28:00.000+05:302005-09-26T11:28:00.000+05:30only if the Islamic Terrorists do it, will it make...only if the Islamic Terrorists do it, will it make news,<BR/>and only if they do it to non-islamic women, will it be an outrage and yeah the best response to an outrage is to reply with a riot.<BR/><BR/>i couldnt access the contents, but should the gory detail, make a difference, no.<BR/><BR/>the social hypocrisy is deplorable to say the leastwise donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084116949920234832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070362.post-1127699035157937182005-09-26T07:13:00.000+05:302005-09-26T07:13:00.000+05:30Please post the contents.
