Letters: Trolls, 'Anti-National' Labels and Banerjee Convoy Attack
Letters to the editor: Trolls hit a new low with debate over Anne Hathaway's baby bump · telegraphindia.com

This article is a collection of letters readers sent to a newspaper.

One letter talks about actress Anne Hathaway, who is pregnant with her third baby.

Some people on the internet said her baby belly was fake, like the ones used in movies.

To prove she was telling the truth, she wore a top that showed her belly.

Other letters talk about the word 'anti-national,' which is sometimes used against people who ask the government questions.

Student protesters at Jantar Mantar were called 'anti-nationals.'

Many readers think the word is used too much.

Another letter talks about Mamata Banerjee, a former chief minister.

Someone threw mud and stones at her car while she was visiting a family whose relative died in police custody.

Readers say the people who did this should be caught and punished.
