Irom Sharmila, true Gandhian

Tushar salutes Irom Sharmila and her ‘innovative form of gandhian protest’ as opposed to silly tales of ‘gandhigiri’ that the media keeps circulating:

Courage comes in many sizes. Sharmila Irom Chanu is a diminutive woman from Manipur, frail and meek looking. Looking at her one wouldn’t imagine that this woman has embarked upon a courageous mission to save her land and people. But what she has done over the last six years is nothing short of a display of courage of the rarest kind, a courage born out of empathy for the rape of her land.
