Let me make one final point. We are talking about stigma, discrimination and so on. As a matter of fact, it is not only minority groups that face such difficulties; there are professions within every sector - the education sector and whatever else - in which people with jobs come to bad periods in life, put up their hands and are then punished for telling the truth. That must also be noted. I have come even across such cases involving people working in the education sector.
