Whatz in the disputed site?
The terrorist attack on the Ram temple at Ayodhya has brought back the focus on the age-old dispute. What I found interesting was the reluctance of the media in calling the temple so.....they prefer calling it the "disputed site". Even Saeed Naqvi refuses to call it a temple, but has no qualms in calling the old structure a masjid. Well, there was no namaaz in the old structure since late 1950, and ppl are worshipping Lord Rama in the "disputed site" for years now. Then why the reluctance in accpeting a spade as a spade???!!!
There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognise ability.
