"Maoist uncle, what is our mistake that you blow up schools and deprive us of education? You may have problems with the police but we fail to understand why are we your enemy? What is our mistake that our schools have become a soft target for you." Wonder how Arundhati Roy will react to this open letter written by hundreds of school children of Bihar's Aurangabad district to Maoists waging war against the state.
After targeting railways and mobile towers, Maoists have blown up more than 20 school buildings in various districts of Bihar, at least 10 in Aurangabad district, only because they can be used by central para-military forces.
Great way to ensure that people remains 'equal' and dependent on forests, as they have been for thousands of years.
Arundhati, will you please ask Maoists to spare India's children?

I think Arundhati Roy should spare us from herself...Maoists will follow suit...
In Arundhati Roy's opinion, perhaps these children are some of the 'better off citizens' which P Chidambaram is selfishly trying to keep safe from the 'poor Maoists'?- she would think the Maoists justified in targeting their schools!
Arundhati's can talk and be heard but not these poor children.. what injustice!
Arundhati's voice is audible because it is from the T V studios.
