I hear you Anoop - all Indians should learn to help ALL of their countrymen. Then & only then will truly prosper - listen to Rahul's message - I believe it is the right way forward. He is to unite and help including the farmers - not to divide and discriminate. The people in Vidarbha should be helped and tragedy stopped.
