a protest letter from a pucca idiot in support of Varaansis' weavers

Janab Amir Khan saheb,

Greetings and Adab from your fan ship.

I am Dr. Lenin Raghuvanshi, Convener, Peoples’ Vigilance Committee on Human Rights (PVCHR), a membership organization based in Varanasi. Thanks for visiting your maternal house in weavers dominated Telia Nala in Varanasi and highlighting the predicament of Chanderi Saree in Madhya Pradesh. I publish thanks giving on my blog http://pvchr.blogspot.com/2009/12/thanks-amir-khan-for-support-to-weaving.html and also comment & feedback on your blog www.aamirkhan.com

However the lakhs of weavers of Varanasi are miffed, as he did not sympathize about their abysmal condition. As many as 142 weavers and their children have either committed suicide or died due to malnourishment or poverty in various handloom weaver community dominated areas.

Please see URL article published on the condition of weavers of Varanasi:
