Godhra, a city of the Indian State of Gujarat, was the lead story in all Indian newspapers on February 27th-28th, 2002. A shattering piece of news: 58 Hindu pilgrims had been burned alive in a train. �57 die in ghastly attack on train� ran the Times of India�s headline; �Mob targets Ramsevaks [Devotees of Rama] returning from Ayodhya�; �58 killed in attack on train with Karsevaks [volunteers]� (The Indian Express); �1500-strong mob butcher 57 Ramsevaks on Sabarmati Express� (The Asian Age). But the BBC�s announcement had a very different tone: �58 Hindu �extremists� burned to death� � or Agence France Press on March 2nd: �A train full of Hindu �extremists� was burnt.� sors :- http://www.jaia-bharati.org/nicole-elfi/ni-godhra- ang.htm#18 Preminchu Preminchu Premistunee undu  |
