#1 The mere fact that A. Roy doesn't like it indicates that there is likely some merit to the situation. I may be wrong, but she has been a pretty good inverse weathervane for me in the past.

#3 I was surprised by how nationalistic the Indian Tamils I knew were. They were Tamil first and Indian a rather distant second.

I suspect Roy's agenda here is to stir up trouble between Indian Tamils and Hindis.

#5 Roy considers herself an International citizen.

She said she was ashamed to have an Indian passport after the 1998 nuclear tests. She has tried to justify the jihad in Kashmir and recently called on India to surrender the state to Pakistan.
