Anant Bagaitkar is Chief of News Bureau at Sakal Papers.

Anant Bagaitkar had this comment when he saw his video comment here on Youtube.com: 
"Though the problem of Left Wing Extremism, LWE, is due to inequality, which was mentioned by me also, it is more out of deprivation. Because, as I pointed out, the sense of deprivation is more intense. After more than 60 years of independence, if a section of the society is unable to get fruits of development, then that section is deprived of it and it has every right to protest in democracy. Only thing that the protest should not be violent or undemocratic. Here we defer with them - LWE. But one has to understand
the basic or fundamental reasons of this issue or problem and then it should be addressed in that way."

The interview was recorded at Hotel Shangri-la in New Delhi, India, on 2 May 2012, conducted and edited by Mik Aidt.
