While those who feed us commit suicide in various parts of the country — the moral police decides to impose a fine of Rs 500 for couples who dare to kiss in public in New Delhi.

Every morning I open to the papers and read about a farmer hanging himself from a tree or jumping off a roof, because he is in debt.

It really hurts to know that authorities have their priorities all wrong.

    A food for thought put succinctly.

    A sad but unfortunately true reality in our country of contradictions :)

    What’s this about fines for couples kissing in public?  In New Delhi?  I read about the same thing in Chennai a while back, too. 

    Even married couples, too.

    Who let the nuts pass such laws?  This couldn’t be the majority opinion.
