Sir,
I belong to gond tribe. We (gonds) worship king Ravana, in fact we also have his temples. He was a great king, he was portrayed wrongly as they wanted to show Ram as a hero or something. And on the day of dassehera, people burn our king on every square of locality. We feel helpless as no one bothers about our sentiment.

They say Ravana was a cruel man, but then why he didn't touch Sita? Why did he wait for her consent? There are enormous examples. I can tell U that Ravana was a good person.

Sir, I respect you a lot as I m also a budding lawyer. I'll eagerly wait for your reply.

Thank you
