Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind... Anyway, let us look at some facts -   Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party.

It reflects on heartbreak, books, and belonging, while questioning the books’ depth, popularity, and emotional staying power. Comfort is guaranteed. Impact is debated. Why do we turn to quiet books when life feels unbearably loud? Have you noticed how, when everything feels too noisy, too demanding, and too sharp, you do not want fireworks from a book ?
