It's yesterday once more...

At Raj Nivas.

It's our fifth day at Raj Nivas. Have been doing all that I'd done during my childhood over the last few days. Even Lekha had gone to witness the last two days of the Maha Ganesha temple's annual festival and said that she was taken back to her days at home when she was a child.

Plucking and eating mangoes from the trees in our backyard, playing in the stream that forms our northern boundary, meeting my cousins from my father's side and meeting up with relations and friends have become a way of life....it has given me a tremendous sense of happiness!

The difference is that my parents aren't there and my sisters are at their homes. They will, however, fetch up by midweek to attend the wedding in Lekha's family next Monday.

Why isn't Rahul Gandhi Being Restrained?

He aspires to be the Prime Minister or more rightly, his mom is keen that he makes it. There's but a decorum that such personalities are expected to maintain all the time which is that they do not belittle the others and especially, people who hold important positions. The Chief Justice of India is one such individual.

It's that gentleman who has been called a bench fixer by this brat. Is this the stature of the youngsters joining politics, these days? If yes, we need to hang our heads in shame. He has done appalling things in the past too, like one can never forget the manner in which he tore a piece of legislation that the government had approved in front of Shri Manmohan Singhji, the then Prime Minister. So what if he's a member of his own party? It's not his private fiefdom!

And he wants just 15' to demolish Prime Minister Narendra Modi according to him. Now, isn't that a laugh? How can he be so crass?

What's most ugly is that senior Congress leaders, including his mother, have not corrected him. Is he beyond reproach? I mean, at least, teach him the basic manners please. A very, very sad day indeed!


Tailpiece.

Lekha had gone to Kottarakkara to help her sister with the wedding related purchases. So, it was lunch by myself, she'd it late by about a half past 2.
