• Indrani Gupta : I read it last night. It's a terrible story. It's not keeping with your paper's values.

  Haridas Bagchi : Why? What's it about?

  Indrani Gupta : A bunch of foolishness that I don't believe in at all. It claims there's a supernatural force on earth which protects the good and punishes the wrongdoers. Can you imagine anything more ridiculous?

• Haridas Bagchi : I'm the editor of this paper. I'll decide what gets published and what doesn't.

  Biresh Guha : By publishing this article, I think you've given Janavarta's reputation a big boost and also supported a righteous man. How can you deny this crisis? The epidemic is real! It's a fact!

• Dr. Ashok Gupta : I'm a doctor. Don't I have a duty to society? If the water contains bacteria, can't I write about it in the daily paper?

  Haridas Bagchi : I'm very sorry, Dr. Gupta.

  Dr. Ashok Gupta : Are you even human?
