What Should One Do With Such News

First the news: Legendary naxal leader Kanu Sanyal dead - Yahoo! India News

What should one do with such news stories? Are they to be celebrated that the end of an old naxal leader will bring much needed peace in my country? Or should we seat to think whether the fight for the justice and equality has suffered one decisive blow to say that any new transformation is ages away.

Ironically, Sanyal’s suicide comes after heavy activities by the naxal activists in many parts of the country. The man who created a path of violence for youngster spanning three generations finally chose a much trodden path. Why he chose to do what he did will be discussed in the days to come.

For the time being,  the question hangs either way.
