While we realize that the policies of his organization are often viewed as controversial, our belief is that such views need to be openly discussed, debated and challenged. We believe that intellectual transparency is the best policy for an academic institution and program, and that our students benefit from such exchanges. We welcome your participation, and we look forward to any questions you may raise at the event. Anjali K. Sharan (Ms.) Program Coordinator, South Asia Studies The Paul H.

Anjali: Dear Smt. Anjali Sharan ji, Namaskar. Thanks a lot for your kind, prompt and emphatic response. The orderly conduct of Shri Ram Madhav's talk at SAIS will certainly enhance the reputation of JHU as a prestigious academic institution. I hope the talk will be a harbinger of an Indian Ocean Community as a counterpoise to the European Community. Thanking you for your consideration and wishing you all the best, Dhanyavaadah.
