The News Minute| December 7, 2014| 8.00 pm ISTFormer India hockey captain, Viren Rasquinha, has taken to twitter to criticize columnist and author Suhel Seth over a remark made by the latter at the TOI Litfest. Rasquinha, who was also part of the event, took offence at Seth who after getting on stage said “don't know what that bald guy was doing on a panel on sport, whats he done”, according to Rasquinha on twitter. In a five part tweet, the 34 year old criticized Seth while questioning his “domain expertise” and the condescension of Bachi Karkaria, the convener of the fest.Had an excellent session @TimesLitFest on the next big thing in sports. And an unfortunate encounter with an obnoxious Suhel Seth 1/5— Viren Rasquinha (@virenrasquinha) December 7, 2014As my session ended, Suhel Seth comes on stage and says "don't know what that bald guy was doing on a panel on sport, whats he done" 2/5— Viren Rasquinha (@virenrasquinha) December 7, 2014It's so disappointing when I am invited by the Times Lit fest to speak and get dissed on stage by a guy who doesn't even know who I am. 3/5— Viren Rasquinha (@virenrasquinha) December 7, 2014Even more disappointing to have the times lit fest director Bachchi Karkaria behave condescendingly.
