A sure failure
by Vishvaksenah E on Apr 29, 2008 01:15 PM

During the last elections, few graduates from various IITs got together and contested elections in different constituencies. They sure did get few votes......but later on the movement fizzled away.
With all due respects to their intelligence in scoring good marks and getting degrees from prestigious institutions, social / public work is totally a different ball game.
You cant expect Viswanathan Anand to shine in T20 , just as Dhoni will come out a cropper in front of a chess-board.

If Sri Ravi Krishna Reddy wants to make some difference , then his role model should be persons like Dr.Jayaprakash Narayan, who quit his IAS posting and has taken to social service.
This kind of observing 3-day fast is a cheap gimmick and attracts nothing but laughter.
