End of a generation

Bhavani chithy (aka Pankaja chithy), my aunt and mentor, left this earth yesterday. She was 80. Her body has been donated to a medical college. She was the fifth amongst six siblings, and the last one to leave. This marks the end of mom's generation. May she find peace in the eternal world where she has gone.

The pot calling the kettle black.....


Cornered by a lone crusader, the current Congress party has done just what all criminals and crooks do. It tries to wriggle out by calling Anna Hazare a corrupt preson ! Let's see who is talking : friends, promoters and accomplices of A Raja, Kalmadi, Kanimozhi et al. Let us cheer and applaud our learned Prime Minister for his brave and futile stand ! Let us see how lomg he will stand the noise generated by Anna Hazare and his supporters. Reminds me of the way the Britishers faced Gandhi's QUIT INDIA movement and eventually got deported unceremoniously. But, let us hope our Anna is not given the fate which they gave to Gandhi. Cornered and caught criminals can go to any extent. Please take care Anna sahib. We need you.
