Why are you blaming me instead of the organisers? Do you expect a poor
student like me to fly down to Delhi from my own pocket? Most of the
people who travelled to Delhi from their own pocket came with their
own commercial interests in mind. I didn't have any. So I didn't come.
Please don't mix personal issues with bigger issues in general.
Regards,
BG
