Irom Sharmila

                                 

An Indian woman who has spent nearly 12 years fasting to protest against a law

that gives special powers to the armed forces has been featured in :

Ripley's Believe It or Not !

Irom Sharmila Chanu, 40,

has been on a hunger strike since 2 November 2000 :

in the north-eastern state of Manipur.

She has been force-fed through a pipe in her nose since November 2000.  hocked:

                               

what is the big deal , starvation is common in india , why should her starvation be glorified in Ripley. Could it also be that this poster goes about scouring the internet looking for negative stories on the mother country ?
