Comment on ಪ್ರಾಮಾಣಿಕತೆ, ಪ್ರಬುದ್ಧತೆ ಇತ್ಯಾದಿಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಒಂದು ಟಿಪ್ಪಣಿ by Chandrashekharaiah

I dont think you are a careful reader. Mr.Bhat didnot quote someone saying in an approving tone. When his reporters ridicules Mr.Reddy as a “loose party” he did object to it. Better read the stuff once again.

If you read what I have written carefully, I never said V. Bhat called Ravi ‘loose’. But he did quote someone saying that in an approving tone. All I am saying is that regardless of our differences, our public discussions ought to be civil.

And oh, I am a pretty careful reader, thank you very much.

V.Bhat has never called Reddy as looseparty. Better read once again. I think as a historian you should have properly read the articles.

hello Sir,
just happened to get the link through Ravi’s blog post. Read your comments on the issue.

very true > ಇಂದಿನ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಚುನಾವಣ ಮತ್ತು ಸಾಂಸ್ಕೃತಿಕ ರಾಜಕೀಯದ ಹೊಲಸನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸಿರುವ ಯಾರಿಗೆ ಆಗಲಿ, ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ಜೀವನದಲ್ಲಿ ಆಸಕ್ತಿ ಉಳಿದಿದ್ದರೆ, ಅವರು ಮೌಲ್ಯಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ಕನಸುಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಮಾತನಾಡುವವರಾಗಿ ಉಳಿದಿದ್ದರೆ, ಅವರನ್ನು ಹುಚ್ಚರೆಂದೇ ಕರೆಯಬೇಕು!

well, i believe when people who think alike this start proliferating, only then, we can anticipate any kind of change in our - otherwise ’so called’ - cultured Society.

thank you.

Well, Mallya stands for everything Gandhi would have disapproved of. Lavish, well rather, obscenely lavish lifestyle, hedonistic pursuits…He’s over the top in everything he does. Gandhi would have cringed at the thought of his and India’s honor being saved by a self-indulgent liqor baron

Actually, my favorite newspaper Star of Mysore today had a blazing headline: Mallya saves India’s Honor. Gandhi probably would have had some videshi collector keep it rather than Mallya buying them, methinks.

Gandhi will have surely told Mallya to find some other business to keep himself busy!

that’s why i think a National Honor Museum, with Mallya as its chief patron will be appropriate monument for the post-Gandhian India.

$1.8 million!

I wonder what Gandhi would have made of a liquor baron buying up his personal artefacts for the sake of national honour! Would he have told Mallya to spend the $1.8 in the service of temperance movements?
