This fact has been forgotten by our politicians today. <br /><br />I remember how Mani Shankar Aiyar declared Veer Savarkar a traitor and has the plaque bearing his name taken down at the Cellular Jail.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mani_Shankar_Aiyar#Savarkar_Controversy<br /><br />http://www.indianexpress.com/oldStory/54260/manjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15470194805146456892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-74811068417981191692009-12-31T13:45:24.021+05:302009-12-31T13:45:24.021+05:30Nice lesson on history.

It took 13 years to bring justice to the victims of the bomb-blasts, no one knows if the july blasts victims will get any - there is no news of any trial on! Mumbai terror attack victims too will have to wait a decade where the murderer is being well fed at our expense!Minalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556930930046840091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-52732156856657742009-12-30T15:44:55.897+05:302009-12-30T15:44:55.897+05:30I was so absorbed that did not realise that I was ...I was so absorbed that did not realise that I was crying while reading this until a drop fell on the keyboard. I could completely relate to all your feelings and thoughts here.<br />I guess we should send every elected representative on an all paid trip to Andamans. Movies should be shown of the price at which our independence has been gain and of the tales of sacrifices. That might make them pause a little before swindling public money or using their power for selfish ends.Ushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00179239922869639391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-31827574161932829222009-12-30T14:36:02.589+05:302009-12-30T14:36:02.589+05:30Those were different times indeed.

Some of the occurances of that time send shivers through the spine !<br /><br />I am currently reading 'Vishnu's crowded temple' and some of the accounts there just make you want to cringe at the politicians that we have now !<br /><br />I am so glad that you stood up to the folks over there ! As you usually do ! :) The Mumbai training helps big time !!!!! <br /><br />Great to hear ! Thanks for sharing !Kavihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11426040093753611098noreply@blogger.com
