Indian Express - do you know Baba Amte is dead by Mahesh on 10 Feb 2008

If Baba was a Christian, you guys would have given headline coverage for his service. His work is lot more noble than Mother Teresa's, as her "service" was with hidden agenda propagating Christianity.Now this pakistani news is so critical to Indian express.That is why I stopped reading yr bullshit new items. (Was looking into yr cricket coverage. Found nothing on Baba. Hence this post)

we know by Gautam on 11 Feb 2008

Baba Amte was a great person and so was Mother Teresa. Stop your tirades against her based on some articles by others who pass value judgements. But you are right, Baba Amte did not get adequate coverage from the media not like the Pakis or Sanju Baba's marrriage.

love and restrain are far better, as it allows the best in the other to come out. by shamsher on 10 Feb 2008

restraining one's own mind is better than finding faults in someone who existed centuries ago. The fault lies in humans who choose to interpret, and forget to put the things in context of current time.
