Fast becoming a nuisance
The Editor:
For the past 40 days, the viewing public had no choice but to see and read about Kublalsingh’s hunger strike against the State’s decision to build a highway segment between Debe and Mon Desir. Honestly, it has become a nuisance more than an interesting story now. While I believe that everyone has the right to fight for a cause, his stance is merely a matter of opinion rather than what the general public thinks. Most persons by now don’t even believe that his fast is real.
Is it that nothing else is happening in the country that we have to see him in the headlines every day? It will be of greater value to us to hear about what is happening in our country and throughout the region so that we can all learn and plan our way forward for ourselves and the future generation. More than enough time was spent on him. I think it’s time for us to move on with this issue. Any grievances can be taken back to court.
