Eid Mubarak

Today is also India's first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru's 115th birth anniversary. Some of you know how much I admire this great freedom fighter and later statesman par excellence. I have often remarked that if given the chance to choose a time in history to re-live my life, there is no doubt I would've chosen the period in which heroes like Gandhi, Nehru, Jinnah, Patel, Rajaji, Tagore, Gokhale, Periyar and Radhakrishnan held sway the masses of the motherland...

May his soul rest in peace...

I'd love to be interviewed!
I only admire Jinnah in the way he was able to achieve what he did - not necessarily because I like him for what he did.
