Forwards

As a rule I have always found myself deleting numerous “forwards” that people send to my inbox. Sometimes I do read them. But the circumstance has to be special and the forward itself, amazingly tempting. I do not wish to say “visually tempting” if you are getting my drift. That stuff gets you spyware !! I do not know by experience, but by “word of mouth” publicity .

Having said that, some of the “forwards” do deserve consideration. Just the other day I got an email which had images which shocked and made me angry. The image showed Nirmala Devi who incidentally looks my friend’s mother is seen with the Indian flag at her feet. That is just downright unacceptable. Some action needs to be taken. The incident is quite old I must say, but then again, it was also quite widely talked about, and even figures in her Wiki entry!! This sucks. What sucks more, is that you get an email, in fact a forward, and you don’t even give it an ounce of your attention. I am going to find out what action, if at all, was taken against this self proclaimed “mataji” (mother) of the Indian common man.
