These men of the cloth, suit, dhoti or wearing regular clothes are really
a violent bunch, as recently revealed only couple weeks back, a Pastor
had a cutlass and threatening another for a parking space illegally hijacked
on Charlotte Street.
Now, Pandit Ji, hijacked a public way for some ritual and blocked passage.
Gone are the days, when everyone LOOKED UP, head high, to these
religious people for guidance, which as now turned out, is violence.
