If ever there was an interview where the interviewed huffed, Hawed, Ducked slipped ,tied himself in knots and landed with egg all over, I would rate Rahul Gandhi's Interview with Arnob Gosawmi of TimesNow News Channel on 27 January at 9 pm in Newhour. If Karan Thapar was nailed black and blue by Jayalalithaa when he interviews her, when she bluntly told him that she did not like the way he conducted the Interview and tht it definitely was not a pleasure for her to interact with hi, Please read my post with Video on this. Now Arnob Gosawmi fired bullets after bullets to Rahul Gandhi and he was left with no clue at all. On the issue of Gujarat Riots,when Gosawmi asked him the rationale behind Congress attacking Narendra Modi after the Courts had given Modi a clean chit in the Gujarat Riot case, all Rahul could say was, totally irrelevant of course, that the Congress believed in Empowerment of women, taking democracy to grass-roots and about the six Bills pending in the parliament to root out corruption! I counted the number of times Gosawmi asked Rahul about Modi. Six times and he got the same answer. Then Arnab switched over to the killing of the Sikhs after the assassination of Indira Gandhi in 1984. Reference was also made to Rahul Gandhi's speech about his controlling his anger at his grandmother's killing. Asked why the Congress did not take any action against Jagdish Tytler,HKL Bhagat and others for inciting the violence against the Sikhs, all Rahul could say he wanted law to take its own course. When reminded that the same people were to be given tickets and were denied after media uproar Rahul went into Empowerment story!

He would not have a No from me! He would take me to Hindu pilgrimage spots. He had taken me Hardwar,Rishikesh,Kedarnath and Badrinath. And I had a gentleman whom I met on the Train at night en route to Budh Gaya. I was on my way, with my wife to Benares,Gaya and Allahabad and the Rajdhani from Delhi was expected to reach Gaya by 3.45 am. Around Eight when the Dinner was being served a Young man of about 35, took the Dinner Trays from the Waiter' laid it out in his aisle berth and made sure me and my wife had water by our side. As my wife was allotted an upper berth, he exchanged his berth later one, without my asking! I spent some time chatting with him. In the morning he woke me up at 3.30 am, helped me out with my baggage, assisted my wife in getting down from the Train He fetched us an auto rickshaw, gave directions to the driver, asking him to drop us at the address, telling him that he should call him as soon as he dropped us and had the driver's Phone number noted. After ten minutes or so when we were reaching the destination the driver received a call from this Youngman who checked whether we had reached safely and chatted with me for a couple of minutes. Remember it is 4am! He is local Cable TV operator from Gaya and a journalist. Next morning he sent a man who introduced himself as an Agent and booked us in a Train to Allahabad. Wait listed at 300( I never knew WL can run into 300!) I was apprehensive. The man was waiting at the Train Compartment before we arrived got us a Confirmed seat. Do you that he refused to accept anything more than Rs 20 as his charge! I get to meet a lot of my son's friends who are North Indians working in Bangalore. The way they mix and the respect they express, I have not seen.
'If you find a Snake and a Brahmin, kill the Brahmin First"-EVR "Recalling his earlier Erode days my media friend said EVR used to address public meetings at Erode’s Karaivaikkal maidan. Power connection for loudspeakers came from an electricity line drawn from an Iyer lawyer’s place close to the maidan. At one such meeting the Dravidian Kazhagam supremo, in an anti-Brahmin rant, called on his followers to go for Brahmins with scissors and have their sacred-thread snapped. As lawyer Dhandapani Iyer heard EVR holding forth on cutting off Brahmins’ sacred thread he cut off power to the public maidan, leaving the mike system dead . Realising his tactical mistake EVR swiftly made amends by raising his voice, loudly enough for him to be heard by the advocate Iyer, that his followers must ensure sure that nice Brahmins such as Dhandapani Iyer were spared. Power connection got restored and EVR carried on his speech, avoiding references that could hurt the man who powered his public address system." This actually happened. An unruly crowd went around in Srirangam, cutting the tufts of Brahmins, Their Sacred Thread. They went around chanting, 'Paapan Ozhiga" Down with Brahmins' the term used to denote was derogatory, Paapan, in their opinion. These jokers did not even know Tamil.

The Google translation did not give me a clear picture. I googled what I thought was a key word and landed up a totally unexpected result I am aware that some leading German Companies were in cahoots with Hitler during the Nazi Regime. Krupp and Volkswagen I was under the impression were working for the Nazi War Machine, that's all. It transpires that Volkswagen(VW),Krupp and Opel were not only in collaboration with Hitler's Nazi Germany, but were a part of the Holocaust , engaged in forced labor and used Gas chambers.
