Apparently, he reiterates that ‘Tibet is a part of China’, China should play an important role in monitoring Indo-Pak relationships, and that US & China ‘ties have never been more important to our collective future.’

lines of india - nov 17

For those who haven’t read today’s newspaper, here’s the article straight from the Times of India.

MUMBAI/DELHI: Ageing Shiv Sena patriarch Bal Thackeray on Monday alienated himself from millions of Indians when he attacked the country’s icon and Maharashtra’s most loved son, Sachin Tendulkar, for saying that “Mumbai belonged to all Indians”. In an editorial in the Sena mouthpiece, Saamna, Thackeray, warned Sachin to “keep off the political pitch” for his own well-being. Or else, he would have “run out” from Marathi minds….

And how much more interesting RK Laxman is. So here is my RK Laxman inspired first edition of The Lines of India. Can’t decide what to call it. Almost daily editions will be coming up from tomorrow-  so watch out for this space!
