Shobhaa De Stands For Ramya!

Ramya alias Divya Spandana Divya Spandana, born on November 29, 1982, known >> Read More... has been the target of some people for the past one week. What is she say? Why has she been facing a sedition charge for Insulting India? A few comments on the social media made people feel sad for her. Ramya was invited to Pakistan to participate in an SAARC young Parliamentarians’ Conference. What did she say? She said, "Pakistan is not hell," and “People there are just like us. They treated us very well." A person tweeted "Oh... isn't she some two-bit actress from the South?" But Ramya didn’t care these trolls and did her work as usual. Shobhaa De slams those people, who are against the comment by Ramya and mentions them as Idiots. She says, “What if Priyanka Chopra had come back from Pakistan and made a similar comment? Would the same idiots have condemned her as strongly? Or would they have used a different yardstick because PC is a global star and not in their limited vocabulary, a `two-bit actress'? Does Ramya not have the right to express an opinion which differs from the Minister's? Assuming 99 per cent of Indians think Pakistan is indeed hell, and the balance 1 per cent holds another view, does it make that 1 per cent anti-national automatically? Can they be labeled criminals?” Shobhaa also said, "I have not met Ramya. Nor am I likely to. Neither am I concerned with her politics. Burning her effigies and spitting on her pictures will not elevate the lumpen.They will remain where they belong.It is the increasingly strident voices of `People like Us' we need to pay closer attention to. Telling people like Ramya to 'Go to hell,' is not going to make India a better country.” Although Ramya explained the hospitality by Pakistani people, she has been labeled as anti-Indian.
