Sir,
There is a dispute about Gandhi stating " Hare (He) Ram"
It is stated that Gandhi never mentioned "Hare Ram" although officially he supposed to have uttered these two words. This was probably done to reconfirm attributes of a saintly Hindu who utters God's name before his soul leaves the body. In other words it was done to fool gullible Indians.
God will help those who help themselves. We need to analyse the issues and take suitable steps to put country on right track.If we can do this I am sure Gods will be more than happy to support us.
Regards,
Satish

Gandhiji's last words "Hare Ram!"unfold the fate of ours.
It is said some Awards are Honored by awarding them to really genius, stupendous persons,
unimaginable, service to the people at the cost of their own/family comforts and some Awards
are denounced by offering them to the persons of low caliber, non-deserving, NVA to humanity
as a whole, persons with lowest service/utility to humanity.

ILLUSTRATION BY SORIT
THE SECRET DIARY OF BHARAT RATNA
Dr C.N.R. Rao
He played cricket for 24 years, I was with solid state chemistry
for 60 years.
V. GANGADHAR
Tense moments. Not possible to do my usual work. At
Thiruvananthapuram airport, on my way back to Bangalore, a young scientist
rushed in with the news that New Delhi had honoured me with "the Thing".
Not expecting anything of that kind, I flew back quietly without any fuss
and began editing research paper 1632. Next morning some friends dropped
in at the flat. We offered them Coorgi filter coffee. Everyone was happy
over the 'thing'.
Glanced at the newspaper. O, someone else too has been
offered the thing, cricketer Sachin Tendulkar. He played cricket for 24
years, I was with solid state chemistry for 60 years. He told the media
that the morning after retirement and the receipt of the thing, he awoke
at the usual time of 6.30 am. But suddenly remembered there was no
cricket, no net practice, no physical exercises. So he went back to sleep,
got up late, made himself some tea and read the newspapers. In my case, I
was up at my usual time, 4 am, for I had some papers to work on. That
fellow Rajdeep Sardesai of some TV channel who interviewed me would not
believe that I always got up at 4 am. In his routine, such timings did not
exist, perhaps that's why our TV news channels are so bad.
The channels had nothing but Sachin. One newspaper was
kind enough to call me an "institution-builder" but here too I was way
behind 40-year-old Sachin who had built a huge bungalow costing around
`150 crore. That evening he hosted a sumptuous dinner for his friends,
teammates and others associated with his cricket. No wonder he could
afford all that because another paper reported that post-retirement he
could be flooded with more endorsements! Ha, they don't call me to endorse
even a test-tube or pipette! But all said and done, I would not change my
solid state and materials chemistry. Fortunately, this was not a topic for
any silly controversy but the media reported I had said politicians were
idiots. You see, scientists would never come out with any statement which
was known to everyone. You see, I will never call anyone an
idiot.
People like me cannot compete with Sachin. He retires,
immediately has a gymkhana built for him. Gifts worth several crores are
showered on him. Forbes says he's worth $1,500 mn. As a nation, do we have
that kind of a budget for science and technology? How can anyone call me
an institution-builder. If I asked for a solid state chemistry lab, will I
get it quickly? Recently, I did some specialised work in high-temperature
superconductivity and nano sciences and had a hard time explaining to
people that I had not joined the Tata car project!
