I don't want to put the headline "Ka again", as penned by Tayanta Mira (DS Dec.24) on Taslima Nasreen, but only want to point out that 'freedom of pen' does not mean that you be allowed to write anything and against anybody you wish and thus encroach upon someone's human rights. There we must draw a line between decent literature and offensive writings. There always are ethics that all should follow.
