Iraq s health minister resigns after deadly hospital blaze(May 4): more than 80 patients died, 110 were injured. The authorities must investigate the real cause and make sure this never happens again. Whoever is guilty should be punished. Human lives won’t come back, whatever compensation is given to grieving families. However, I applaud the minister s resignation on moral grounds.

IPL cricket is suspended – why did it take so long?(May 4): at one time, cricket used to be a gentleman’s game. It is heartbreaking to see the situation in India right now. The tournament should have been suspended sooner. That it was not tells us how much the game has become about money, above all else.
