Taslima's untenable case

'Ka' consists of gaudy illustrations of sexual relationship involving intellectuals close to her both in Bangladesh and West Bengal ('Dhikhandita', Indian version). Even the respected intellectuals, who extended their moral and logistic support to the writer when 'Lajja' was published, could not escape her defamation scheme . She has depicted the whole male community in the context of female anatomy. Now the question is why she has done so? Going through this process, she is trying to induce moral degradation of the readers and gain publicity.

Some woman activists shed tears by superimposing Taslima on the same plane as Humayun Azad. I don't know why they are doing so. Description provided in Azad's book 'Nari' of female body is mostly educative based on medical science. Hence, it is quite irrelevant to compare him with Taslima.

When Taslima talks about 'sexual excesses' committed against her, the question arises, is she a minor girl not capable of identifying what is sexual harassment and what is not? If she was sexually assaulted by any intellectual, why didn't she seek legal action? Is this the character of a woman activist?

She may prove her allegation providing sufficient evidence before the court and the door of legal procedure is always open to her. Instead of acting smartly, she takes the other way to fulfil her selfish desire of slandering the intellectuals. My concluding words to Taslima are: please think rationally, write something more substantial.
