Arnab Goswami’s new English news channel Republic TV is bang on target. It is very much a reflection of what India has become – a noisy, chaotic place where coherent debate without shouting, screaming and name-calling is impossible.

This is a question racing around the world as it deals with the after-math of the London tragedy, and the many others played out before our eyes. Mass shootings, terrorist bombings, vehicles driven through mobs of pedestrians, and now many burned alive in an apartment block. That on top of the horror in Syria, Yemen, and elsewhere as people die in their hundreds on a daily basis.

In the jungle of human existence, it’s easy to overlook certain traits of those who are forced into a regiment of control governed by law and the establishment.

Thinking our way through the maze of confusion and with a hotch potch of suggestions acting like ingredients in a stew only adds to it.
