Bhyrappa echoes Mrs. Raja's thoughts in his comments on Hussein Episode

Noted Kannada writer Mr. SL Bhyrappa has said that:

A section of the media had been commenting that the “banishment” of the renowned artist M.F. Husain was a “national shame”. But how many of Mr. Husain's paintings had reflected his views on the religion he belonged to had remained to be clarified, he said.

Now this man is talking sense. Please recall that Mrs. Hilda Raja expressed similar emotions when she wrote:

Nobody would have protested against the sexual perversion and his orientatation to sexual signs and symbols. But would he dare to caption it as ‘Fatima enjoying in Jannat with animals’?

and

Now that he is in a country that gives him complete freedom let him go ahead and paint Fatima copulating with a lion or any other animal of his choice. And then turn around and prove to India-the Freedom of expression he enjoys in Qatar.

Now here is man who has echoed what a lady has said with due rational consideration. Of course both of them arrived at their conclusions independently.

Let us wish there are more and more of them saying more and more of the same and sane things.
