i agree with this article... sometimes the media can influence a lot of things and not always in the right way...

Ironic that this lady, who seeks to muzzle others, is named after something that veils and muzzles women....!

Barkha doesn't mean a veil as far as I know :) It refers to one of the seasons - Spring I think. Barkha Dutt's sister is called Bahaar Dutt. So I guess it is the matching Barkha, and Bahaar words in Hindi :) Nothing to do with veils

No, I was just using one of the words that is used to refer to the veilin Hindi... Barkha I think actually means the rainy season "barkhA bahAr Ayee...ras kee phuvAr lAyee..." etc.
