Theos-Talk Archives (November 2008 Message tt00203)

Has anyone seen any response to the questions raised by the Indian Section?

In today's instantaneous Internet age, it is a very long time since the
Indian Section''s message.

Issues like this is going to leave a bad taste with the Indian Membership
and they are going to remember it. What I am afraid is, any future candidate
from this continent will be tainted by association in the minds of Indian
Membership. In elections, things like this have very long time consequences.
