The Last Liberal Hero

People who have known me have always wondered what made me think of my brother so highly. It is quiet tough to put it into words the reasons why i hold my brother in such great admiration. And at last I got an instance that I could share with all...

This is what happened to him on Saturday. When he went out he was stopped by the KRV. Yeah, they have found their way around. They are now setting up tents around the city and name it after a god or goddess and shove an idol there just as a sanction to be there. He told me how, they were going around harassing people, stopping everyone and asking them if they spoke hindi. I was not shocked I was ashamed when i heard this, and my brother agreed. He replied to them in Kannada "yaake re..Noodidhre gothagalva naanu eellinavanu.. Naannu Kannadiga untha?" (stating that he was from bangalore and he was a kannadiga). The man approached him smiling to put his hand on his shoulders, and he did what I am so Proud of him for doing. He stepped back and walked away. "I wanted them to know that even I am a Kannadiga but I am not one of them"
