The Mannargudi pontiff’s reaction to actor-politician Kamal Haasan’s remark about Nathuram Godse is unfortunate (Tamil Nadu, “Kamal won’t have freedom of movement, says Jeeyar”, May 16). A religious leader of stature should be restrained. One should not give too much publicity to what Mr. Haasan has said. We must remember the words of E.M. Forster: “In public affairs… something much less dramatic and emotional is needed, namely tolerance”.
