“if you were to identify a single person who embodies us Indians the best, who do you think it should be? Ideally, it should be a tribal woman because she is most likely to be carrying the deepest-rooted and widest-spread mtDNA lineage in India today, M2.

"Well, Christina, if I wanted to put up with Candor smart-mouths, I would have joined their faction", he hisses.
