On Attack on Taslima Nasreen August 10, 2007
We strongly condemn the physical attack on Taslima Nasreen, a Bangladeshi writer. This attack goes against the democratic and secular character of the Indian polity.
One may have differences over the writings of Taslima Nasreen or anybody else, but this definitely is not the appropriate manner to express dissent. This very act militates against the freedom of expression.
We demand that the Andhra Pradesh government take firm action against the culprits responsible for this attack.

This does not seem like "On-Topic" post to me.

This is something similar to the Fanaa episode. We are here to protect the
freedom of knowledge.
