Dear TaraPrakash

I am in complete agreement with what you have said. Because for me, it's not
the person but the idea which is more important. Unfortunately, in India, we
have a tendency to revere the personalities rather than their ideas.

That's why today Gandhi and Nehru have been turned into mere statues,
instead of all of us trying to learn something from them. And that's why
Mayawati wants statues of herself made in U.P even before she dies.

Regards

Rakesh
