"It's disheartening to see someone like Indrani Mukerjea being celebrated at a lit fest named after Khushwant Singh, whose legacy stands for integrity and honesty. This sends wrong message about accountability and justice. We should be elevating voices that inspire and uplift, not those that embody controversy and scandal," anor user commented.
