With Nandini Sundar news lets turn our focus away from Delhi and onto Chattisgarh. Take this a chance to put them back on road to normalcy.

This is vendetta against Nandini Sundar. Shocking and absurd. She is one of the most nice, humble, intelligent human being I have met. https://t.co/iwLmaMlrDu
