>>> But, no such sympathy gushed forth when for
 example Ms. Bibha Devi<<<

The  observation seems neither here nor there.Let me pare it down to
the basic.In what way was I wrong when I expressed my deep sympathy
for the victim's family? Is there a single person here whose opinion
needs to be built in this regard? I wonder!! Am I not allowed to care
for someone just because similar sentiment was not expressed for an
another case as Bibha Devi's? Said who? Heaping scorn on me for
letting my heart goes out to a victim's kith and kin is nothing but a
hidebound or blinkered vision.

SUPPORTING TERROR SYNDICATE AND SHOWING SYMPATHY TO THEIR INNOCENT
VICTIMS ARE TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN.

BTW,Nearly 500 students and teachers of Cotton College took out a
protest march against the murder of Bibha Devi, a professor of the
zoology department of the college, who was found brutally murdered at
her Professors’ Colony quarters in Dighalipukhuri area of Guwahati.
