As I type this, I am loitering in the corridors of an old school building. 3 classes diagonal to where I stand, are reciting 3 different verses of "Bhagvat Gita". In a city where Tamil has a linguistic and political domination, "Sanskrit" attempts to carve a niche.
Being a volunteer to an initiative like this, marvels my understanding of "this State". A State where anti Hindi agitations have been dominant and neon-sign boards in Tamil are predominant.
As I key these words...I can sense, I have an interruption coming my way.
A class wants to know how many consolation prizes they can give. Answer that and pat comes another query, if 2 first prizes can be given. Few minutes back, a judge had asked for some tea.
Got him one, and he clarified, he actually meant coffee. Never-mind, specifying tea or coffee need not be a priority, for an octogenarian who is nurturing his love for an "old language", .
Now here comes my tea, a perfectly refreshing note to say, never before, have I done this Walk & Blog Exercise.
:) Nice to read
