UR Ananthamurthy, renowned Kannada writer, dies in Bangalore
Well! He had said he'll leave India if Modi becomes PM. He did. Someone heard him.

Re: UR Ananthamurthy, renowned Kannada writer, dies in Bangalore
George was sitting on a cot. He was unrecognisable. He had grown his hair and beard long. I went up to him and touched him. He embraced me. George’s younger brotherLawrence came in. He looked older than George. He had a lunch box in his hand.
As we sat talking about his family and mine, worms kept dropping on us from the roof of the church. George was pulling out the palmer worms and scratching himself all through our conversation. He gave me a mission with these points:
Snehalata had to go to a rarely used lavatory in Vidhana Soudha. Making sure no one was around, she had to explode a bomb at night. I had to provide some young men to help her. The explosion had to bring down a portion of the Vidhana Soudha, but not kill anyone.

Modi tweets, "Shri UR Ananthamurthy's demise is a loss to Kannada literature. My condolences to his family. May his soul rest in peace."

>>>I don't know much about his politics, but he is supposed to have been an engaging literary figure and teacher. Good to see Modi can rise above petty politics.

Of course...Modi ji is anyday better than Silly Sonia, who has asked all cong CMs to boycott the PM.
