Opinion - Letters to the Editor   

The other side

Sir, — I refer to the letter titled `One-sided' (Nov. 18) on the campaign on AIDS awareness. While the criticism that the campaign appears to target women may be valid, I am compelled to present another side to the picture.

The campaign targets that group of men which indulges in "risky behaviour" and urges it to be more responsible. Let us remember that all communication has to portray specific role models and depict some slice of life.

Nithya Balaji,
Chennai
