Vijay Diwas 1

V ijay Diwas 1999 June - July days.. It’s raining cats and dogs in southern parts of India… South-West monsoon lashing the Konkan shores with ferocious beating. And in North West of India, what’s raining are shells, bullets, bombs, rockets etc.. Yes, let me invite you to one of those days of Kargil Conflict between India and Pak in 1999 May- July days. I was in Navy, posted at Goa, Dabolim Naval Air Base called INS Hansa. All Naval Air Bases are named after some birds like Garuda in Kochi, Rajali in Arakkonam, Madras, etc. for obvious reasons. I was Chief-in-charge of the Second line maintenance Unit for the Russian made Kamov 25 Helo( Helicopter).

But being a naturally honest person, writer feels it will be criminal to do so... Yibalpur was an utterly dry place where the only greenary was the thick bush around a sewage treatment plant which could be seen from far while driving back from the nearby town, Fahudabad. And of course, the few other flower plant

Pana Swaminathan

It was a farewell party and I was asked to write a life story of one of our Partner, Viswanathan, hailing from Nemmara, Palakkad who was retiring and leaving for settling in Palakkad. This story was to be read in the party and this is what I have written about him after gathering information through an informal chat.. Once up on a time,….. Partners, let me start my story here like this… and the title of this story is “Lord of the Gods and the Goblet!!! 1950… a December cool and calm morning… If my memory is correct, it was 17th day of December and it was a Sunday!!! A legend in the making is born.. And his parents called him ‘SWAMINATHAN’ Lord of all Gods… Friends, He was born in Kerala. His friends later started calling Kerala, by another name , God’s Own Country, after his birth. Nemmara, a small village in Palakkad District, became widely popular because of mainly 3 reasons… One, because of the well known local festival called Nemmara Vallangi Vela which is only next t
