Why blame the likes of Romila Thapar when no one from our own stable has written any dependable history. So much so that bloomers litter even a post of a dozen lines. Quoting “the Master's words” is an affliction with us that distorts the context and contorts our view of the future. [TNM] Reply

Lest the concluding lines appear a cruel joke, our slumdogs toiling to win an Oscar is perhaps an instance of saving grace. [TNM] Reply

Dear Srikanth,

What you say about publishing is right, but blogs, thankfully, have altered the scene, which, I observe, you are yet to take seriously and contribute regularly. [TNM] Reply
