I never thought I will say this, but I really miss Mr. Mani Shankar Aiyar !! He made the 2014 elections so easy for Mr. Modi with that one super comment delivered with that permanent sneer on his face – “he can serve tea at the CONgress session, but can never be Prime Minister”. How … Read more
Krishnan and I celebrated our 2017 anniversary in Delhi, staying in a place called “Lutyens Bungalow” or the “Nath Guesthouse” on Prithviraj Road.
