I want to tell you about this hero, Hasib. This boy was our tempo driver yesterday, drove us across villages. When we offered him his wage for the day, he refused to take it saying he worked for a noble cause. We asked him to at least take 2000 rupees from us but he refused.

Arnab Goswami is not the villain. It is millions of Indians who watch him on TV, the voyeurs who prefer watching the vilification of a young woman from the comfort of their living rooms. It is so much fun to watch the slut shaming of a woman than hear about GDP & farmer suicides
