protest / party / dinner

at the protest rally to free chandramohan, the baroda art student in custody after his work was considered too “obscene” for our delicate indian psyche. the crowd of 250 or so was divided into the earnest, the attention grabbing, the socialites, the backbenchers and the media. still, a lot of people did turn up on the steps of jehangir. all for a good cause - therefore i shall cut with the irony. at least something happened. more is needed to make sure that this kind of right-wing idiocy does not keep continuing.

after the rally, so many of the protests moved to gokul, like our did, where tamal, kausik, mohua, rupali, aparna, arijit, tapan, vinita, prachi and me sat and had a few drinks. i had to leave half way fo dinner at kuntals which was great fun. kuntal, nandita, ajay, surabhi, kavita and jabeen, along with mukul and me. sanaa and meha ran circles around us.
