Now I wonder about the Bengalis and Tamils.
I have noticed some similarities.
Both are, in general,dark skinned, dusky.
Both consume Rice.
Rice is consumed in South India, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka in large quantities when compared to other states of India, especially North India.
As a matter of fact, These Southern states along with Odisha and Bengal consume more of Rice.
These states form an arc on the eastern seaboard of India.
And like the Tamils, Bengalis are attached to their Language Bengali and like Tamils are highly emotional

Donations Welcome
I have not accepted advertisements because I am a little conservative in accepting ads as my personal views on the type of ads to appear in my site, which I know ,will not be acceptable to the advertisers. And I would be constrained in my writing. Though I am not a very influential Blogger,I was approached by political parties to write favorably of them and slander the others. Even before bringing this to my notice, my son-in-law, as he informed me the same night the offer was made, had informed them that Father(me) does not plan his writing, he writes on the spur of the moment; I am not sure what he will write about you to-day,further, he is not interested in money. True to my form I had blogged about the same party the day they offered a hefty sum for writing about them! Then why ads now? I am interested in helping children who have no financial resources, who come from a very poor background and are in need of financial support. I want to help them by , not paying them in cash, providing them the support in kind and this will be done personally be me, and not through by any Organization/any body. The students will be selected personally by me and the help will be provided in kind to the student concerned. Out of the Donations I receive, I will be spending 50% on this Cause. The balance , I would have for myself for I am tired of replying people, mostly my children who feel that I should be compensated-that I write for the pleasure of it. You may also send to my Bank Account or remit through Western Union. Or Pay Through PayPal Kindly mail me at ramanan50@gmail.com. I shall provide the details. I appeal ,especially to those who request for Muhurtha Dates to Donate.
