The more things change, ........

Remember the Bihar bashing when Bhagalpur blindings took place. Well history is repeating itself, this time as a comedy. The alleged torture of a chain snatcher is the latest stick to beat Bhagalpur and Bihar.

Contrast it with the low key coverage of an ex Bengal MLA pissing on lady passengers in a train compartment. It so happens, Nathnagar is not that far from Malda as the crow flies. Then what explains the alacrity of reporting in one instance and the lack of it in another. What else but the boundary between two states of the Indian union?
