You had done something impossible; even in this corner of India , here in Assam, our children love Amul butter, Amul Icecream than other butter, icecreams. Otherwise flooded message boards of rediff is only having 1 message about you. Will you forgive us for not being grateful to you even after death as we are engrossed with abusive words spreading hatred among communities, spitting venom on the performance of legend crisketer etc. etc. ?
We need people like Dr Kurien more in the 21st century, when we have forgotten the freedom fighters, Sardar Patel and Lalbahadur Shastri in the mad rush to wealth by selling the country short, be it the airwaves, the coal reserves, education or the airlines!
