I was called back more than once to address his men on the hazards of tobacco. I’m not sure how many remember the tragic incident where some bad elements while fleeing the Police had shot dead a few of the policemen on the street - this happened in Vikhroli.

It’s taking a long time but I persist with the book … brings to me a strange sense of my own history. Madras, bits and pieces of my Kerala. ⁦@abe_verghese⁩ won me over with My Own Country and then Cutting for Stone. This Covenant I make with myself
