waiting for a piece to get out-dated…(by parismita)

March 29, 2010

A fragment from a piece I did in 2006, when Irom Sharmila came to Delhi, and a body of protests sprung up around her. I used this piece in a pamphlet in D.U. earlier this year too . Its funny to be able to go back to a piece that I thought would be a very ‘dated’ piece , and then year after year, see no need to put in edits, change references etc. It is already 2010. The only thing to do is to change the ‘number’of years Irom has been fasting from 4 to 6 to 10 and so on…
