I came across this article in the morning newspaper, and wished to share it. I hope you enjoy!

My friend posted a link from The Hindu about Ima Keithel on her blog, its so refreshing to read such an article, specially when nation is flooded with news of riots in north-east states.
I hope you enjoy too!
