http://saneidiosyncrasies.blogspot.com/2008/04/reality-across-street.html
Just scribbling my thoughts,wherever and whenever I can. Thursday, April 10, 2008. The reality across the street. So while I was reading,Vikram Chandra's Sacred Games.

Civil wars can also be cataclysmic in the extent of damage they cause,particularly the ones which involve secession of a small part of a country which claims its independence.
