Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary Bangalore bookseller, TS Shanbhag. It was the virus that killed him. I owe much of my education (such as it is) to books bought at his Premier Bookshop. He was a wonderful man. I wrote about him here:

Delighted to hear that Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Dufflo have won the Nobel Prize for Economics. Richly deserved. Abhijit is a proud graduate of that much-maligned university, JNU, and his work has inspired many younger Indian scholars.

Tomorrow at 4pm IST, 5 million women will create a 620km long women's wall across Kerala against the regressive policies of BJP and RSS.
Godi media is trying to ignore this huge revolution, as they know it will tarnish the image of the Emperor.
Plz RT and spread the Word!!!

I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Maybe Hollande also studied in JNU?
You don't know this yet but Hollande is also an anti-national anti-Hindu, Pakistan- loving urban naxal who is funded by vatican/ISIS/anti-Indian groups to spread lies about our great supreme leader Modiji. Modiji can never do anything wrong.

We disagreed all our lives, about politics, about literature, and I feel as sad as if I just lost a beloved older brother. RIP Vidia. #VSNaipaul

A lot of those we call 'highly educated', weren't highly educated. They were expensively educated.
