Tavleen Singh writes: Can we go back to when India was not afraid of foreign correspondents or dissidents?


Last week India faced censure that we need to take seriously. Bulldozer justice worries me personally to such a degree that I have often written against it in this column. Dissidents in the past decade have been regularly arrested under laws that were made for terrorists. But I feel the need to remind him that the only time, other than then, that I have seen foreign correspondents kicked out of India has been in the past ten years. The two French journalists who have recently been expelled had not just lived here for years but were married to Indian citizens.
