Spent four wonderful days in the capital city enjoying company of journalist friends from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Maldives and Myanmar. There was a rare camaraderie in spite of the regional, racial and linguistic sentiments. A woman journalist from Dhaka asked me whether I had any ill feeling towards people from other South Asian countries like many other Indian journalists? I had to explain a lot about the humble upbringing of people like me in the progressive South India, where people think beyond caste , community, religion, language, gender and ethnic sentiments. Also I learned the narrowness of rigid nationalism.
