After the porno sites, the biggest spammer on our website is the pro-Tata forces. It is very interesting to note that the Tatas have engaged spammers to attack sites like us. These agents have been targetting especially those pages where people’s struggle in Kalinga Nagar is mentioned. The usual way is to put the same comments on all these pages. If you remove them, those comments will come up within a few hours under the name of some other spamming agent (with proper email id). Earlier we thought this is a bonafide act from a pro-Tata person, so in the name of fairness we were inclined to keep these comments at least on one page. But later on we found that it is really a nuisance as same comments would come up again on different pages. For couple of months we tried removing these comments. However, now we think it is high time such low-key web war by the corporates like desperate Tatas should be exposed. You can see some of the comments here:
ONE
TWO
THREE
FOUR
FIVE
SO THE LIST CONTINUES.

Hey, why are you guys so scared about these comments? Why can’t you allow a healthy debate to start… with view points from all?
If Tata’s are posting these comments, you also point out facts which are wrong or are deliberately being mis-represented. The objective is to understand the truth, which sadly is always elusive in India as everyone is representing some vested interest or the other… be it the big Industrialists or ‘pseudo protectors of peoples interest’.

Yes. U r right. Why deleting comments? People should know both side of the coin. If something good has been done for the sake of a specific community that should be told about.
Why it shouldn’t be circulated? Why only negative news to be circulated all the time? Why all the news providers always try to feed the mind of normal people with horrible and negative stories? What’s the problem if little positive information is getting circulated?
If industrialization is a big trouble for the society, then why a part of our society talk about removing unemployment, poverty? Why we always want to reopen all those factory which has left locked for long time?

Please for the sake of saving few under privileged community, do not push them under the darkness of illiteracy, poverty. Consider it as an appeal. A child can not grow without the parental guidance, a boy cannot learn without a good mentor, and a youth cannot grow without proper education. So please help grow a community, a society, a state and obviously our country.
