The author is concerned the masses are naively imagining that it has ended? He feels compelled to caution them against becoming sanguine so early!
Pardon me. I too can’t immediately recall who has been feeding the imagination of the masses about invasions, re-occupations, blood-thirsty retributions, and immediate, iron-handed reprisals.
Mr. Jerry Rao, like most who have similarly graduated from India’s public-funded elite institutions, always behaves as if that one credential gained long time back granted to him for perpetuity…with no further need ever for right effort by him…soaring intellectual and moral superiority, and temporal entitlements, which others cannot question.
