It is learnt that a European Union team will visit Kandhamal to assess the post communal situation. It would be intriguing to know what relation exists between Kandhamal and Europe. Are there any Europeans settled there? If not how is the European Union concerned with Kandhamal? The 2008 rioting was a disturbance between two communities. Europe, Australia, Lawyers Forum of the US or Canada are no way concerned with them. Are there any theocratic states in Europe that are concerned with Christianity or any other religion of Kandhamal. They vouch themselves as world’s top most secular countries and how come they stoop so low communally as to visit Kandhamal for assessment of status of a community that is not any way linked to them politically or geographically or anthropologically.
Have they ever thought of going to Algeria where people have been butchered like animals. Have they ever tried to visit Xiang province of China or Tibet ? No. Then why Kandhamal? Because it is India whose ruling chief is a spineless Indian. There is a proverb in Oriya that says: “Poor man’s wife is everybody’s sister-in-law.” That is the condition of India and Orissa under Naveen Patnaik. Had it been Modi’s Gujarat, the EU team would have got a fitting rebuff. Barack Obama 
asked India to accept Chinese mediation between India and Pakistan. There was no word of protest. We have lost our self respect and dignity.
Although I am a Christian, I am an Indian first. I feel very much disturbed over interference by European nations in the internal affairs of our country. I am a convert but I know under what circumstances my forefathers were converted by missionaries and the game continues even today because Christians do not believe in coexistence. To convert people to Christianity is the sacred duty of every Christian. Even Pope in one of the new year speeches has said, “We expect a good harvest from south Asia this year.” If conversions take place continually, how long can they do it even if they are Hindus? One day they will rebel and give birth to organisations like Bajrang Dal and Kandhamal will repeat the violence every now and then. I only pray God, to give the Indian youth a strong backbone to counter this mischief to malign India. – Letter to the Editor, The New Indian Express, Bhubaneswar, 5 February 2010
