Views under the News - 11 February 2013


The comments are probably the (fictitious, imaginary, unexpressed, tongue-in-cheek) subtext, views and events behind the News Reports, and solely intended to bring a smile to the readers. They have no connection to events and characters in real life. No offence or disrespect of any nature is intended to any person, (and especially to Indians), race, religion, community, caste, profession or sex.
