    With all respects. She would have passed into history as any normal person.
    It is stupid people like these who had misguided idea of religion/way of life that today, Gauri Lankesh is a martyr. What a shame, that this guy and his handlers did not have problem killing a lady, which is not what this religion/way of life teaches.

    I watched some of her videos and she is a bit above the average person in the media. Failed to inspire whatsoever.

    Killing a person is a most inhumane act..if he has done this, he has to be punished.

    We should thank the new Soren government in Jharkhand. So many days he might have been living in luxury & safety. Now the Bhima- Koregaon case is also opened & we have to see the truth about urban naxal theory
