Celebrity blackmail
Lata Mangeshkar threatens to leave Mumbai for good.
This is so very irrelevant to the larger issue. I'm sure reasonable arguments can be made both for and against the proposed Peddar Road Flyover, but emotional blackmail has no role in public discourse.
Yeah, I know, so no one told Gandhi that. My fault or what? There weren't blogs back then.
(And neither was I, coming to think of it.)
