Apropos of Barkha Dutt’s ''Hammered and sickled (November 17)'', the Nandigram (West Bengal) episode is more dangerous than the Gujarat
riots. Communist parties have ready-to-attack brigades of party men, unlike the crude assemblage of miscreants by some communal minded persons in the case of Gujarat riots. CPM can replay the same scenes with a short notice. If truth to be told, the communism can flourish only through heavy handedness like shown in Nandigram, and not in a democratic set up like ours. –Naval Langa, Ahmedabad.
