	in Bombay. May be trade-union riots. Basically people
	in Bombay are too busy for riots. I wonder Why he chose
	to mention Bombay.?

With all due respect to the 'busy' Bombayites what should one call the 
Shivsena sponsored riots of mid-to-late seventies? However much I would 
like to believe that there atleast is one major metropolis free of communal
tensions in India, I cannot agree with the blatantly false 'holier than 
thou' attitude the above letter conveys
