Dear Sir,

Gujarat riots were a spontaneous response of the majority community against an unprovoked firebombing of fifty nine karsevaks in Godhra station. It will term the riots as a justifiable response and the muslim community is charged with contributory negligence in allowing Godhra to happen. How come we do not have any difficulty with a still smaller minority communities like Jews and Parsis and their contribution to India's growth is immense and widely appreciated.
