We are in Thrissur and will be here for some time. The drive from Bengaluru was comfortable and good. We left at 2:10 AM and reached our destination at 10:25 AM, covering approximately 500 km in 8 hours, including brief stops. I think that’s a very good average on Indian roads. I was...

This week we celebrate the birthdays of Gandhi and Shastri. Two honest men Indian politics has ever seen. What I appreciated most in Gandhi was his sense of self-criticism and his ability to speak/write about his weakness in public. I don’t think normals can do it then or even today.
